Do It Anyway

DO IT ANYWAY

 by

 Mother Teresa

 People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered;

 Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of being selfish, ulterior motives;

Be kind anyway.

 If you are successful, you will win 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.
