Because I value those who enrich my life by their presence and love, I consider their feelings in my words, actions and decisions.

While I have let go of the idea that other people’s feelings should dictate my actions, I consider the effects that my choices will have on those closest to me and bear that in mind.

I recognize that their feelings and concerns are as valid as my own. 

Life is like a pool of water. When I toss in a pebble, those around me feel the ripples.

Every action I take and every word I speak affects others.

I have let go of the idea that I should be able to operate in a vacuum; I want a far richer life than that would provide anyway!

I feel gratitude for the community I live in.

I know that building and sustaining a community where all members feel supported and valued requires a conscious effort by all members.

Therefore, I take time to think honestly about the effects of my actions on those I love.

There are times when I am affected by the decisions of others.

As an adult, I have the choice to walk away from circumstances if I feel that someone is putting me in an unhealthy or intolerable situation.

I do have freedom, but their choices still affect me.

I greatly appreciate it when others take the time to consider the effect of their choices on my life.

In return, I grant the same concern for the feelings of others that I desire from them.

How have you taken the time to ask those closest to you how they feel about your choices?

How do you show your loved ones that their feelings are as valid as your own?

When I keep the focus on myself I can express my feelings without fear.

I am the only one who fully understands what I feel and the better I can express these feelings the better I will be understood.

I express my feelings in a healthy way and this creates a safe platform for me.

I let others know what my feelings are regardless of what they may be.

By focusing on my own feelings and using “I” statements to express them I am communicating in a safe and healthy manner.

I avoid blaming statements and choose instead to relate to how a situation makes me feel.

When someone does something nice for me and makes me feel special I communicate these feelings with that person.

Likewise, if I am upset by a situation I choose to communicate these feelings constructively.

I explain what I am feeling and why I am feeling this way.

I share only my feelings and how certain words or actions have made me feel.

This is a healthy way of communicating and therefore is safe.

I share my healthy attitudes with others when I communicate in this way.

Today, I choose to share my feelings even if I feel a little uncomfortable doing so.

I will remember to use “I” statements that simply relay how I feel.

I will share this safe platform for communication to others who also wish to communicate their feelings with me.

How have you bottled up feelings because you were afraid to share them?

How do you extend this safety to others who communicate their feelings with you?
