In life, we seek to encourage an atmosphere of happiness, love, friendship and peace; that is, a healthy coexistence where we can grow and develop as people in all of our (biopsychosocial) facets.

Acknowledging someone else as a person with human dignity, just like me. This inspires us to treat others the way we would like to be treated.
Solidarity
Sharing ourselves with the people around us. By acknowledging others and their dignity, we commit to our own wellbeing and that of others in a fraternal relationship of mutual cooperation.
Shoring tolerance towards diversity
We accept others. We congratulate ourselves for the differences among those around us. We acknowledge that each human being is unique and we believe that unity can be achieved through diversity.
