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. |
