What is a credo? Credo is actually Latin for
"I Believe" and is a statement(s) that represents one’s beliefs and
ideas. Basically it’s the beliefs and ideas that guide someone’s life.What
type of statement represents me? What defines me? What makes me how I am? Values,
beliefs, principles. What do I believe in? What are things I value? I am a
mother first and foremost. I am a wife and value my husband and
marriage/relationship. Family, friends, loyalty, love-represents Claddagh.
Claddagh is an old Celtic symbol of a hands holding a heart with a crown. The
hands represent friendship, the heart represents love and the crown represents
loyalty. I have been wearing one since I was 12, clearly means a lot to me in
fact for the longest time I wore one on my left hand per tradition which was
that it would one day be replaced by an engagement ring that would also
represent those same things. I also
value the ability to learn, growth, peace, tolerance, diversity, equality. I
believe in overcoming adversity, resilience, strength not of just the body but
of the mind and spirit. I believe intelligence is not always intellect. I have liberal
and conservative views. I don’t like labels. I don’t like hypocrites. I don’t
like (organized) religion. I am spiritual but not religious. I don’t know what
to believe. Empathy is important. Helping others means you help yourself
however the former is much more important than the latter. Words matter just as
much as actions. There is more to this life than money and materialistic
things. Happiness is what you make it. We should always try to be better
versions of ourselves.
