There is no beautifier of complexion, or form, or behavior, like the wish to scatter joy and not pain around us.

You are somebody

There’s no need for you to strive to be somebody. You are somebody already, with your own unique gifts to offer life.

What a waste it would be to spend your whole life seeking to be someone you’re not. What a true joy it is to spend your moments expressing and fulfilling the authentic person you are.

Today is a day to dance your own dance, to sing your own song. Live the joy that is yours to live, and create the beauty that is yours to give.

Pay no attention to the fleeting, superficial vision of success that the world seeks to sell you. Build a success that has real meaning for you by being true to who you are.

Most of the disappointments you’ve experienced have been the result of striving to follow someone else’s dream. Let go of the need to do that, and feel the freedom, the amazing effectiveness, and the exhilaration of living a purpose that is truly you.

You are somebody unique, valuable, beautiful and worthy of the best life has to offer. Now is the time to fully live that truth.

— Ralph Marston
