It is between you and God

Handwritten sign found on the wall of Mother Teresa's room:

• People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered; forgive then
• 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;
• be successful 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, others 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 your best
• anyway.
• For you see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
