Anyway…

Anyway Poem – Mother Theresa

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 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’ve got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God;
It was never between you and them anyway.

I heard this poem yesterday and it really hit home for me. For me it meant to continue to be who I am regardless of what others may think, say, feel, or do. In the end, my life and all I have or haven’t done will be between myself and God. That’s it. So, I will continue to push forward and be who I am no matter what.

Have a great day folks. 🙂 I know I sure will!!
