People are often unreasonable,
illogical and self-centred.
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 enenies.
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 got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis,
it is between you and God.
It is never between you and them anyway.
