For goodness sake

Put time and effort into something good, simply for the sake of goodness. Make the experience of life richer for those around you, just because you can.

Let go of the need to gain advantage or to promote an agenda. Live well, in the company of others, as best you can, because you can.

Smile because it feels good, and let that good feeling infect someone nearby. Give your time, your attention, your assistance, not because it looks good but because it is good for you and everyone.

Find genuine joy in the experience of making a difference. Add new beauty to life by the way you live it.

Give more value to authenticity than to efficiency. Focus on the quality of what you give more than on the quantity of what you obtain.

There is so very much potential goodness within you. Do yourself and everyone else a great favor, and let it all come to life.

— Ralph Marston
