Mother Theresa was amazing… and it’s a Word FULL Wednesday
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.
-A poem by Mother Teresa

you know, that is a very good message. It is so easy to become discouraged with the world and that makes people want to give up. Thanks for posting this. I know I needed to hear it, and I hope it gets to others who need it too.

Ok, that’s the second time I’ve come across that quote in an hour while I am awake in the middle of the night reading my friends’ blogs – maybe I should pay attention??
