The next step forward
+++++++++++++++++++

Adversity is only adversity. Choose not to make it anything
More.

Adversity will affect the circumstances in which you live
And work. Yet you do not have to let it affect who you are,
Or where you're headed, or what you're able to do.

Take note of the setbacks and adjust to them. But don't
Expand on them by making them a part of you.

Instead, use each instance of adversity as a reminder of why
You have chosen to move in the direction you are moving. Use
Each setback as an opportunity to redouble your positive,
Forward-looking efforts.

Every day brings new value and new possibilities. There is
Always a way to take the next step forward on the path you
Have chosen.

Find that step today and take it. No mere circumstance can
Stop you from moving steadily and joyfully forward in the
Direction of your dreams.

~~Ralph Marston
