“People are often unreasonable + self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you.
Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have + it may never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you + God.
It was never between you + them anyway.”
- Mother Teresa
