Do It Anyway
This poem was found written on the wall in Mother eresa's home for the children in Calcutta
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 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.
