Nobody is born fully grown. Like a rude piece of marble, how you carve, square, round, or shape your thought, word, and deed will give you the kind of finished product you want yourself to become. There will be crushing and grinding. There will be pressures. In contending with pressures and difficulties, know that these are not obstacles but are opportunities. These are what God has engineered to develop you into a beautiful piece of art – an excellent impression of His perfection in you.
A beautiful life does not just happen. It is built daily by prayer, humility, sacrifice and love. Appreciate life itself even it is not perfect. Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you wish for, but appreciation of what you have. Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty, and persistence. Choose a goal that seems right for you and strive to be the best, however hard the path. Aim high. Behave honorably. Prepare to be alone at times, and to endure failure. Persist! The world needs all you can give. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path. Set your sights high, the higher the better. Expect the most wonderful things to happen, not in the future but right now.
