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.
