Choose your life

Make the choice to love each moment that arrives, and you’ll find much in each moment to love. Make the choice to persist no matter what, and you’ll gain the strength for that persistence.

What you find is whatever you choose to look for. The life you experience is the life you decide to experience.

This is your life. No matter what is happening around you, the critical factor is how you handle it within you.

Will this day, this situation, lead to success or to despair? That depends entirely on what you do with it.

Everything that happens has the potential to be a turning point. So you must decide what you will choose to turn toward, again and again.

Turn toward goodness, toward love, achievement, fulfillment, understanding. Choose in every moment a life filled with meaning and joy, and that is the life you will lead.

— Ralph Marston
