Our Family Mission Statement

Through these values we are joyful, fulfilled, and most importantly have fun together! 

(We may not always be perfect, but having a shared vision always helps!)

This statement provides protection from negativity and represents our true values and identity as a family and as individuals

·         We are a LOVING affectionate family, who are mindful of each others' individual needs.  

·         We are SUPPORTIVE; we listen, reflect, and help when we can, while lifting each others' spirits as necessary. 

·         We are HEALTHY (mind-body & spirit) - we meditate/pray, eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly, and nurture and protect each other. 

·         We are GOAL ORIENTED; we map out small specific steps to reach both our common and individual goals. 

·         We are RESPONSIBLE, we plan ahead, prioritize, go to bed early (sleep at least 8 hours), respect both time and money, as both reflect our true values and respect for life, ourselves and the people around us. 

·         We are DEPENDABLE, we follow through - we do what we say - we finish what we start! 

·         We are THANKFUL, we appreciate each other, our experiences (both good and bad), and all of our blessings: a beautiful family, close friends, our home, our country, and even the smallest and sometimes mundane parts of life. 

·         We are AUTHENTIC, integrity is important to us, to be real and honest with those around us, and most importantly OURSELVES!  

·         We are PARTNERS; we co-create the life we want by intentionally giving, sharing, and expressing genuine interest and love for one another. 

·         We RESPECT and CHERISH each other as separate and unique individuals with different experiences and personalities, and therefore have different ideas at times. We also understand we are part of a greater whole called the universe (created by God), which comes the greatest respect of all and for all. 

·         We are KNOWLEDABLE; we realize the power to learn from each other, books, our elders, our children, society, life’s experiences, nature, and most importantly the small voice from within.  Each day we take time to meditate/pray, in order to get in touch with our inner-voice, our potential, and our dreams. 

·         We are CONSCIOUS, we don’t allow our egos to control our lives, and we make conscious decisions based on our morals and not on our emotions!
