Opportunity to love
+++++++++++++++++++
See it not as a chance to criticize. See it as an opportunity to be patient, an opportunity to love.
See it not as a disagreement. See it as insight into the other person’s perspective.
Get your ego out of the picture and amazing things happen. You don’t have to waste energy being offended, angry, or resentful.
Though you have every right to be frustrated, you have every reason to let it go. Though you are justified in feeling sorry for yourself, that is never your best option.
Focusing on yourself attracts stress. Loving others, loving life and its miraculous beauty, enables peace.
Every encounter, every situation, every moment is an opportunity to love. See the opportunity, take it and live it, now.
— Ralph Marston
