It is wonderful to live with hope in your heart. Yet by
itself, hope will not accomplish anything.

By all means, hope for the very best. Then put that hope
into action.

It is positive, productive, effective action that will bring
about those things for which you hope. Let hope be your
reason to act, and not a substitute for action.

Hope will put your mind and your spirit in a positive place.
Hope can strengthen your will for doing whatever is
necessary to move forward.

Keep hope alive within you. Treasure it, nurture it, and
allow its warm, enriching glow to fill your world.

With your skills, your resources, your commitment and
persistence, bring that hope to life. Through your own
efforts, be the living fulfillment of the best of your
hopes.

Ralph Marston
