I want to share with you from the last century “Credo for Living” by Dr. Joyce Ladner . To meet challenges we face, I believe this is a great list of principles for us to practice with a promise to honor, respect and love ourselves.
Trust In The Spirit Only faith in our Creator can keep us strong in adversity and nourish our souls.
Keep Family Close We and our children need the support of extended family-aunts, uncles, cousins, sisters and even neighbors and friends. Surround yourself with their love.
Speak Healthy Words Your tongue is a powerful tool that can either build or destroy. Use that power wisely.
Commit To Excellence Find your passion, then pursuit it with all the time and talent the Creator has given you.
Own Your Life See yourself not as a victim who loses, but as a victor who chooses.
Guard Your Mind Our thoughts are predictors of what is to be in our lives. Decide to dwell only on positive ones.
Cherish Your Mind The best gift you can give your children is a model of undying love for yourself and your partner.
Pass The Lesson On The promise in our pain lies in how we use what we learn to heal ourselves and others
Stand Tall, Sister Have the conviction to follow your beliefs, even if others disagree-and even if you’re afraid.
Be Good To Yourself You can’t truly love others if you don’t first love yourself. No one can love you better that you can.
