What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Ralph Marston
Let each moment be guided by positive purpose. And let your whole life express the beauty of who you truly are.
Ralph Marston
There is no limit to what you can imagine. And with commitment, with effort, what you can imagine you can become. Put your mind to work for you. Believe that you can do it. The world will tell you that you can't. Yet, in your belief you'll find the strength, you'll find the ability, to do it anyway.
Ralph Marston

Ralph Marston
