Mother Theresa has influenced my life in many ways. She was an extraordinarily kind and sensitive human being who guided many of my decisions throughout my lifetime.
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of 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 kind and 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 forget tomorrow
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough.
Give the world the best you have anyway...
Mother Theresa
