PEOPLE
People are often unreasonable,
illogical,
and self-centered;
forgive them anyway.
If you
are kind, People may accuse
you of selfish, ulterior
motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win
some
false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed
anyway.
If you are honest and frank,
people may cheat
you;
Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years
building,
someone could destroy overnight;
Build
anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness,
there may be
jealousy;
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today,
people
will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you
have,
and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best
you've got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis,
it is between you and
God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
- Mother
Theresa
