Anyway

People are unreasonable, illogical, self-centered
…love them anyway.

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives
…do good anyway.

If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies
…be successful anyway.

The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow
…do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness will make you vulnerable
…be honest and frank anyway.

People love underdogs but follow only top dogs
…follow some underdog anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight
…build anyway.

People really need help but may attack you if your try to help
…help people anyway.

If you give the world the best you have, you may get kicked in the teeth
…but give the world the best you have…ANYWAY.

I adore this poem/passage. It was framed in Mother Theresa's room while she was alive.

No matter what life throws at you, NEVER stop being WHO you are. No matter what bad things happen, always be yourself...and you'll never feel bad, or go wrong.


I hope you all enjoyed this as much as I do. :)

I try to live by those "codes" everyday. Sometimes hurtful, but I have no regrets. I sleep well at night.

Kelly, that is a beautiful poem.

Several years ago something happened on a vacation I was on to a total stranger. It was very sad, but it was clear that I could do something about the situation. All I had to do was ask others around me to help. For the most part - everyone thought it was a great idea. However, one friend asked me - "what on earth would make you do this?" I realized there was no way I could possible explain and have her understand - so I just went ahead and did it ANYWAY!

Yes, my sleep is good! :D
