“Mother Teresa's Anyway Poem

People are often unreasonable, illogical 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 false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy 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 the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God;
It was never between you and them anyway.

Inscribed on the wall of Mother Teresa's children's home in Calcutta.”

She is the reason I give a lot of respect to the Catholic Church.
That is coming from a Lutheran!

@Pfuzylogic Her life and death, plus princess Diana's life and death a day apart touched me so much when I was 16 years old, I lit a candle and desired in my heart to one day become a saint because of them! God heard my heart's cry! And blessed me so much so that His blessings over my life are like those of the life of a saint. Toot toot sorry for tooting my own horn, it's really His miracles not my own.

Beautiful.

Always loved this quote of hers.

Takes a saint to do it, but I agree with her.
