Anyways

We are always looking for ways to fix the problems of the world, often the answer is within ourselves we have the power... This wonderful poem by Mother Teresa, speaks to the answer, hard as it may be.

“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.”

Take this out into the world this weekend, check back in on Monday, let us know how you did, Our greatest hope is that you do not bleed to death from biting your tongue.
