Mother Teresa
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, they may be jealous;
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’s between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
