Miracles are not in contradiction to nature. They are only in contradiction with what we know of nature.

Go beyond

Look beyond what angers you and you’ll see what teaches you. Move on beyond what saddens you and you’ll encounter things that bring you joy.

Venture out beyond what irritates you and you’ll enter into situations that empower you. Learn to see past what frustrates you and begin to uncover what drives you.

Beyond what worries you is the realm of what inspires you. Go beyond what frightens you and you’ll engage in experiences that strengthen you.

Seeing the good in life is a matter of looking beyond the distractions, frustrations and disappointments. Beyond what is superficial, fleeting and negative, you’ll connect with what has substance, what endures, what truly matters.

Go beyond your first impression. Look beyond the surface.

When it feels that the whole situation is stacked against you, look beyond. Go beyond, and find all the real, positive, enduring value that life has to offer.

— Ralph Marston
