Masters of Love

Mother Teresa Poem
 
 
People are often unreasonable,
illo...gical 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 true enemies;
 
Succeed anyway.
 
If you are honest and frank,
people may cheat you;
 
Be honest 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 God;
 
It was never between you and them anyway.
