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 it overnight; |
build anyway. |
If you find serenity and happiness, others 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. |
