From it all

Life is often painful. You cannot escape all the pain, yet what you can do is give it positive purpose.

The world imposes demands on your time, your skills, your resources, your patience, the way you feel. You can choose to see those demands not as burdens but as opportunities.

Sometimes you’ll find yourself constrained by limitations. What’s powerful and amazing is that through those limitations you can grow stronger, more focused and purposeful.

Life’s challenges increasingly reveal to you who you are and what you’re capable of. Those are very good things to know and to utilize.

In the good times, in the difficult times, and in between, you find out what matters. You devise ways to support and expand what matters.

Today might be the best day yet and tomorrow could be a disaster. Yet you keep going no matter what, making something good and meaningful from it all.

— Ralph Marston
