Now be thankful

Be thankful for the discomfort. It pushes you to move yourself forward.

Be thankful for the dissatisfaction. It reminds you, it compels you, to make more positive choices.

Be thankful for the frustration. It helps you discover more effective ways of taking action.

Whatever the world throws in your path, be thankful for the opportunity to experience it. Be thankful, and in a state of sincere gratitude discover the treasure that has just been laid at your feet.

There is never any good reason to feel sorry for yourself, and never any good result to come of it. Always is a way to be thankful, and always great value in doing so.

Now, be thankful. Touch the beauty, grasp the richness, live the wonder suddenly available in this moment to you.

— Ralph Marston
