More to be Lived

There are valuable treasures available to you even now, that you have not yet discovered. There are many things that will someday bring richness to your life that you do not yet even know about.

No matter where you have gone, or what you have experienced, there is always much, much more to be lived. No matter what you may have once had and then lost, there is always much more to be gained.

What may seem like an annoying frustration at this time could eventually end up being an abundant blessing. For in each moment as life goes forward, you have the opportunity to make the best of whatever you encounter.

What might feel like weakness can be transformed into strength. What otherwise would hold you back can give you plenty of reason to push forward.

Even when much has been done, there is far, far more that you can do. Whether life has been full or whether it has been sparse up to now, there are countless ways remaining to fill it.

Whatever life may have already been, there is much, much more to be lived. And now is the moment to resolutely begin.

-- Ralph Marston

This can be a hard pill to swallow when life is letting me down, but I know from experience and hindsight that each hardship and obstacle in my life has led me to something good, something better, and knowing that has made it easier to get through the tough times and move forward with hope in my heart.

Hugs
Ann
