No One Is Losing

"...Some are ahead and some are behind, but no one is losing... Proper attitude in this crisis-dominated world is a priceless possession. Never before is it more important for all of us to move forward with conviction. We may be behind, but we are not losing if we are moving in the right direction. ...."
--Marvin J Ashton, "Who's Losing?" Ensign, Nov. 1974, 41

There is much reason to be happy, even when the we don't quite have the right cards in our hands for the current play. At least, we are still in the play.

As long as we can wake up every morning, we are still in the play.

No matter what happens, proper attitude will help us through.

This does not mean that things will be easy. Nothing will ever be easy. Even money cannot buy "easy."

No matter who we are, no matter what our circumstances are, no matter what we have or don't have, we all have struggles we face. We all have things that are difficult to understand, master, and accomplish. We all are responsible for our own attitude.

Now, if you will excuse me, I will go and do what I am asking you to do. I am not exempt from being in charge of my own attitude. I can be happy or I can be depressed. It is up to me.
