Grant me the ability to be an independent bubble, whose climate and attitude are reliant on only internal intention and feeling.
Neither a sponge nor a mirror shall I be, absorbing and reflecting, but instead impervious to the influences of xeno-forces, allowing in only that which nourishes and supports me.
Grant me the strength to be aloof, so I might be kind; the ability to be self contained, so I might be healthy; and the wisdom to withdraw, that I may stay free.
Keep my composure when I am exasperated, hold my tongue when I am angry, stay my hand when I am threatened.
Allow me the boon of self acceptance, trust in my intentions, and awareness of my convictions, that I may exercise my self-hood trusting that I do the best I can and am always ready to do better--and that should be enough.
