Remember

Remember there’s a you, inside it all. The problems, the pleasures, the possessions, the strife, the stress, the confusion, are little more than distractions, when compared to the boundless joy and wonder of being alive.

Remember that each moment is a precious gift, an opportunity to be fully alive, to be creative, to love, to care, to learn, to make a difference. Take a deep breath and feel the air as it fills your lungs. Look around and see the beautiful world in which you live.

Remember that you’re under your own control, free to be your best in every situation. Relish the experience of watching yourself meet the challenges. Guide your life with a care and skill that’s worthy of your true value. Fulfill the wonderful possibilities of being you.

— Ralph Marston
