Anyways

At a children's home in Calcutta, India, there was a wall. On it were written a, version of the paradoxical commandments by Doctor. Kent M. Keith. People are often unreasonable, irrational, 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 unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed, anyway.

If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere, anyway. What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create, anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous.

Be happy anyway. The good you do today will often be forgotten. Do good anyway. Give the best you have and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway. I think about that a lot.
