Anyway

Came upon this today and thought it was good enough to share! Something to think about and some great words to live by.

People are often unreasonable, irrational, 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 unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.

What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.

Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.


Mother Teresa

This really was a great message to me because

Don't we all have people to forgive "anyway"?
Do you ever feel you have some unfaithful friends?
Doesn't it seem that in times past when you were sincere, others took advantage?
Or that when you are happy others want to bring you down to be as miserable as they are?
Are you ever afraid to create something because you are afraid it will be destroyed?
Yes X's five!!

Do it, whatever it is, "anyway"!
