People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centred.
Love them anyway.
If you do good, people may accuse you of selfish motives.
Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you may win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Honesty and transparency make you vulnerable.
Be honest and transparent anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
People who really want help may attack you if you help them.
Help them anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you may get hurt.
Give the world your best anyway.

Taken from "Meditations from a Simple Path" by Mother Teresa
To do an act of kindness from the heart
ReplyDeleteWithout reciprocation
To give of yourself freely
And not expect something in return
To look within
To forgive yourself of past mistakes
and in turn
Forgive others of theirs
Is a hard thing to do
But walk a straight line
But true to what you believe
Then respect from others you will
be able to receive
do good anyway:)
