Food for Thought: "Anyway"

Mother Teresa had the following piece, which is all about being bold and acting in the face of fear, engraved on her children's home in Calcutta.
It's called "Anyway."


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 God; It was never between you and them anyway.

I love the "Anyway" thought! I just had a person who wrinkled her nose and said it tastes bad...."drink it anyway"!

Thanks for posting that, Shelly! WE all need encouragement everyday. There's plenty of times when a person can be discouraged. But there's always encouragement, if we look to God and looks to those who give encouragement.
