(The version found written on the
wall in Mother Teresa’s home for children in Kolkata)
People are
often unreasonable, irrational, and self-
centered.
Forgive then anyway.
If you are
kind, people may accuse you of selfish,
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.
Mother Teresa
