{Women Who Inspire}
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.
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 God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
attributed to Mother Teresa
Regardless of religious views, Mother Teresa was a great humanitarian, she is a great role model for everyone, i know reading this passage makes me truly reflect on my actions and contributions to the world.
We can't help everyone, but everyone can help someone.
How are you going to help someone this week? Comment below and let me know.
