Sunday Thoughts

It's Between You & God
          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 God;
          It never was between you and them anyway.

          Be Blessed,
          Mother Theresa
