Anyway – By Mother Theresa

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.

Of 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 is
between you and God;
it was never between you and
them anyway.
