The Final Analysis
by Mother Tereasa
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 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 not 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.
