Social Health

To feel intimately connected to and supported by a few genuine and important individuals in my life. In reciprocity, my purpose is also to feel supportive to these individuals and to be more compassionate and accepting of who they are.

  • I am kind, friendly, and peace-loving. I easily connect and empathize with people from all walks of life.

  • I am surrounded every day by like-minded people I love and can rely on.

  • I am loved by an emotionally mature, intelligent, and attractive woman. Our relationship is thriving. We approach misunderstandings maturely and peacefully. I talk to her in a peaceful, nonviolent way, and I’m able to express my feelings in a way that she hears me. She is able to do the same to me. Both of us feel safe and inspired in the relationship. We remain close while at the same time preserving each other’s need for personal time and space. We grow together and we support each other.

  • I have a close, satisfying, and loving relationship with mama, papa, my siblings, and a few of my relatives. While we have a lot of differences, I am able to talk and listen to them in a nonviolent way that reassures them of my love to them. I spend enough quality time with them every month and take care of them whenever they need me.

  • I am surrounded by healthy friends who are very warm and supportive. They inspire me to be the best version of myself. In these relationships, I am able to fully express myself - my innermost doubts and desires. When I have a problem, I know I can always approach these people and when they are troubled, they always approach me.

  • I am actively involved in several communities that nurture my deepest passions and interests. I get and give support in these communities where I bond with like-minded people in achieving our vision.

  • I have good relationships with my neighbors and I try to be the kindest, most compassionate, and most empathetic person I can be whenever I am around complete strangers. I have developed genuine love to everyone, no matter who they are, where they come from, and what they do to me.
