ANYWAY
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered;
Love and forgive them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;
Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true
enemies;
Succeed anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable;
Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spent years building, they may destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
People favor underdogs but follow top dogs;
Fight for some underdogs anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous and scorn;
Be joyous anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you help them;
Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.
