virgin islands scene

Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

Your situation

Your situation does not define you. In fact, your situation does not really even limit you.

You can transcend any situation with purposeful, focused action. You can choose to change things, to grow, to improve, to create, to prosper and to live with maximum joy and fulfillment.

Don’t get caught up in making judgments about whether it is easy or difficult, pleasant or uncomfortable. Just step forward and do what you know is best for your life and your world.

You are a living bundle of infinitely flexible energy. Instead of letting your circumstances bring you down, let your possibilities lift you up.

Grab the best of those possibilities and inject your authentic passion into them. Create something wonderful, again and again.

Instead of using your situation as an excuse, use it as a starting point. Connect with the unique beauty and immense value of who you are, and rise above any situation.

— Ralph Marston
