I will not become jaded.
I will not lose my compassion.
I will not be a victim.
I will conduct my relationships with integrity.
I will love myself enough to demand accountability from those who do not behave honorably toward me.
I can look myself in the mirror and not flinch.
Sometimes people disappoint [...]
