The Final Analysis - Pearls of Wisdom by Mother Teresa
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;
Be successful 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 have anyway!
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God:
It was never between you and them anyway!
