Molten Heart Pledge

(If you like the blog please spread the word and sign up to follow it on this site or on facebook. If you would like a question answered or to set up a counseling appointment send me an e-mail)

I hate when my clients, particularly women, treat others better than they treat themselves. I hate it when they settle for relationships with people who treat them poorly. I hate it so much that years ago I created a pledge for them to sign and promise not to do this anymore. I found it today when searching through some documents and I thought I would share it with all of you. If you have a friend you are sick of watching suffer, make them take the pledge. If you want a printable copy please just e-mail me and I'll send it to you.

The Molten Heart Pledge
(To be read out loud, line by line, and then signed)

I solemnly pledge
That from this day forward
I will give to myself
And demand for myself
The same love and respect
That I would grant to any other person

I will never settle
For a relationship with anyone
Who does not recognize my worth
And treat me with dignity

I will hold in my memory
That I have been told this day
By one whom I trust
That I am beautiful
Both inside and out

And if I hold to this pledge
I will find many
Who recognize my beauty

For I am as deserving of love
As any other person
I am an important, unique, individual
And the love that I have to offer
Is a marvel
of value beyond estimation
