"People are often unreasonable, irrational, 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 unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.

What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.

Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."

Here is some background.

Well, I hate to burst your bubble, but she did not write that.
 
You aren’t bursting my bubble. I’m aware there was an earlier version. It’s in the link in my post.
 
Okay, well, your title doesn’t reflect that. I put that for all of the people who won’t bother to read the link. 🙂
 
According to the link the words in the thread title weren’t in the original version. They were in the version credited to Mother Teresa, according to the link.
