What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

Lift the future

Just because you can become frustrated, doesn’t mean you must. Just because there are reasons to be angry or envious, resentful or disillusioned, doesn’t mean you have to choose any of those negative states.

Your choice of how to feel does not have to be dictated by the world around you. Instead, you can allow your feelings to come from the beauty that’s inside you.

Don’t base your feelings on the problems. Base them on the positive possibilities.

Envelop your awareness not in judgments about what has been, but in the goodness that can now come from your life. Time moves forward, so look forward, and feel the limitless future as it arrives.

Feel the power and promise of all the possibilities that are now open to you. Inject your own unique goodness and passion into the best of those possibilities to create a beautiful, fulfilling reality.

Your future is what you make it right now. Feel your purpose, feel your beauty, feel your passion for truth and goodness, and lift the future to express and fulfill the best you can imagine.

— Ralph Marston
