- Honesty: Resist lying to others and, hardest of all, to ourselves. Face our pain rather than hiding from it, and be willing to realize when we have caused pain to others.

- Fidelity: Be more loyal to the people in our lives than to our own desires --- respect those places that others can't go with you, the places where relationship cannot be cultivated.
