A poem written by Mother Theresa

The following is a poem written by 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 forget tomorrow; do good anyway.

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