Do It Anyway...

I read this today on a “Just Being Me” post of June and think it deserves to be passed on.

"I read this today and found it very meaningful. It is so true, sadly, yet I found it very encouraging to my soul. It also put things into perspective."

Do It Anyway

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 never was between you and them anyway.

Be Blessed,
-- Mother Theresa
