Do It Anyway
By: Mother Theresa
People are often unreasonable, illogical,
If you are kind, people may accuse you
If you are successful, you will win some
If you are honest and frank;
What you spend years building,
If you find serenity and happiness,
The good you do today,
Give the world the best you have,
You see, in the final analysis
And self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.
Of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
False friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.
People may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.
someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.
it is between you and God
It was never between you and them anyway.
