Look beyond Look beyond what irritates you and you'll find those things that empower you. Look past what frustrates you and begin to uncover what drives you. Look beyond what worries you and you'll discover what inspires you. Look beyond what frightens you and you'll see what strengthens you. Look beyond what angers you and you'll see what teaches you. Look beyond what saddens you and you'll see the things that bring you joy. Seeing the good things in life is a matter of looking beyond all the other distractions, frustrations and disappointments. Beyond what is superficial, fleeting and negative are the things of substance, the things that endure, the things that truly matter. Look beyond the surface. Go beyond your first impression. When you seem to be stuck, and it feels that the whole world is conspiring against you, look beyond. Find the real, positive, enduring value that life does indeed have to offer. -- Ralph Marston
this is just what I need to read I've been realising what a rut I have always been in when I try to think of good memories, I can't find any or I keep connecting it to when this chaos or argument happened
I want to remember positive things and get into a rut of finding the joy today, yesterday and tomorrow. this was an answer to prayer for me
hugs, ddub
