One thing or another

Devote more time to joy, and there will be less time for anxiety. Make more space for love, and there will be less room for anger.

Light and darkness cannot exist in the same spot. Hope and despair cannot share the same stretch of awareness.

Choose more of what’s desirable, of what’s good and beautiful. Encourage and support that goodness with your time, your actions, your focus.

Even when the going is slow, keep going forward. That’s what prevents you from sliding backwards.

In every situation you can focus your energy on one thing or another. Invest that energy on the one thing that is most beneficial for you and all you care about.

Every decision makes a difference in how the world unfolds. Decide to help all that’s good overwhelm all that’s not.

— Ralph Marston
