Mother Teresa

At this moment, I recall the sage observation of 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;
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, at it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've anyway.
You see, in the final analysis it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.”

Thoughts come and go but you are what You Are, anyways!
Excellent Sage Speak. As fresh 'now' as it ever has been!
