What we see depends mainly on what we look for.

Quality of attention

Notice what enters your awareness from moment to moment. Does it merely promote and support some worn-out agenda, or is it a genuine experience of life?

The quality of what you pay attention to has much to do with the quality of your life and the lives around you. Beauty exists where you choose to see it, and expands when you invest effort to create more of it.

You continually select much of the energy that flows into you, and decide on pretty much all the energy flowing out from you. The more love and generosity you can put into those choices, the better for all involved.

You will never be perfect and you never have to be. For every day you have the extraordinary opportunity to be real.

Remain fully present, eager to know the truth of what is. Generously pass along what you gain from that truth through your actions.

You cannot un-live a single moment. So give each one your honest best as soon as it arrives.

— Ralph Marston
