People are often
unreasonable, irrational 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
unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies -
Succeed anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some
unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies -
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere,
people may deceive you -
Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating,
others could destroy overnight -
Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness,
some may be jealous -
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today,
will often be forgotten -
Do good anyway.
Give the best you have,
and it will never be enough -
Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis,
it is between you and God -
It was never between you and them anyway.
--Mother Teresa
It is true, huh? I really believe that by doing the right thing, the good thing, the sincere thing....you improve your own life. I am trying very hard not to sink to the levels of some people surrounding me. They are plenty of times that it is *hard*. But, *I* am a better person and mother when I step up and do the right thing. The sincere thing. The happy thing. I am a work in progress...but I am growing. And, that makes me smile!
