Do It Anyway

DO IT ANYWAY

Written 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.

 

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 is between you and God;

It was never between you and them anyway
