With some recent developments within my family and otherwise, there is a need for me to do some exercising of my own personal rights. Please bear with me. If you can, give your feedback, give your own "I statement", etc.

PERSONAL AFFIRMATIONS

First and foremost, I AM a human being. As a human

I AM a feeling being. Each and every emotion that a human feels is God given.

I HAVE a right to my feelings. They are neither right nor wrong. The just ARE. It's up to me what I do with them.

I HAVE a right to physical as well as emotional/mental boundaries. I have a right which ones to make permeable and which ones not.

I AM responsibile to not cross other's boundaries.

I AM responible for my own persuit of happiness.

I AM a nurturer.

I AM a lover of people and especially all children.

I AM a person of strong integrity.

I AM a fair person

I AM a believer in the statement, "If you love someone, set him/her free. If they are "yours," they'll come back. If they don't, they weren't yours to being with."

In my humanity and life's experiences, I AM scarred and/or flawed.

I AM a person who needs affirmation, reassurance and caring. It's my right to seek such if not freely given.

That's a good start, I think. Feel free to contribute.
