People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered.
Forgive them anyway
If you are kind, people may accuse you of being selfish, with ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway
If you are successful, you may win false friends and trust enemies.
Succeed anyway
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you.
Be honest and frank, anyway
If you spend years building, they may destroy it overnight.
Build anyway
If you find serenity and happiness, people may be jealous.
Be happy anyway
If you do them good today, they may forget tomorrow.
Do good anyway
You see in the final analysis it’s between you and Divinity.
It never was between you and them…anyway.

Reblogged this on Trusting and Walking the Walk of Love! and commented:
It may not always be easy, nobody’s perfect and what a set of goals to aim for and realise as we feel and remember our true Divinity: One day, one step at a time and before we know it we’re there. <3
