“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 got anyway”.
“You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway”.
Boy, that’s a lot of wisdom. And not easy to achieve. And very worth the efforts.
