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 friends, some false and some true
Succeed anyway
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you
Be honest and frank anyway
What you spend your life building, someone destroys 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 your best anyway
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God
It was never between you and them anyway
This is indeed very motivating...But it is easier said than done.. I guess only those who have strong will power and determination may succeed.. Definitely not me..
The phrase:
"What you spend your life building, someone destroys overnight... Build anyway"
How on earth can anyone remain positive when someone comes their way and ruins them? Especially a loved one is the ultimate culprit? And it's even harder to imagine that if we were betrayed by someone we sacrificed so much for them... Do you think we can still have the courage to start building our lives again? Yes, by right, we ought to and have to do it no matter whether we like it or not..
Once again, the word 'however' plays a crucial part... -However-, it is rather impossible to get up on our feet again after experiencing much pain and anguish.. We are being backstabbed, emotionally murdered and slaughtered by someone we love so so so much... What else can we do??
Well.. this is only my opinoin.. I'm not implying that Mother Theresa's words are illogical... It's just so hard for me to be what she thinks can be done...
Something for all of u to ponder... Something that is rational and realistic and yet it could be irraitional and unrealistic to some of us..
Cheers...
