Mother Teresa's Prayer
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 was never between you and them anyway.
