"Live the life that you've been given. Live it fully, generously and enthusiastically in each and every moment. Fulfillment is not hidden from you in some secret, mysterious place. It is right there in front of you the moment you are ready to see it and to live it. There are so many things of which you are capable, you could not even list them all. Instead of making that list, make use of some of those magnificent capabilities and make a life that is filled with richness.
If you were fully appreciative of just one-tenth of your blessings, it would cause you to spring to life with such exuberance that nothing would stop you. Consider for a moment what it truly means to be you, here, now. Think about the abundance of powerful, positive options that are available to you this very moment. Then stand up tall, step forward and live. Live this day for everything its worth and immerse yourself in the joy of being fully alive."
Ralph Marston

Take a look inside and linger there:
Hear what is calling to be born.
Awaiting you this day is something newer than this moment:
Numinous and bright.
Keep your eyes then, attuned to whatever is before you.
Slow down the speeding need for more.
Give yourself this moment to discover where you are:
In truth, you are where you dreamed you’d be.
Vanquish then, all thoughts of judging what you haven’t –
In patience, find the beauty of what you have.
None can guess the outcome of tomorrow,
Give today your gratitude and love.
Ross Foti

"The greatest thing is to give thanks for everything. He who has learned this knows what it means to live. He has penetrated the whole mystery of life: giving thanks for everything."
Albert Schweitzer

"Make me sweet again, fragrant and fresh and wild, and thankful for any small event."
