Someone sent me this, and I like it.

In the Children’s Home founded by Mother Teresa in Calcutta, India there is a sign on the wall that reads: 

People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered,
love them anyway.
If you do good people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives,
do good anyway.
If you’re successful, you win false friends and true enemies,
succeed anyway.
The good you do will be forgotten tomorrow,
do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable,
be honest and frank anyway.
What you spent years building may be destroyed over night,
build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you do help them,
help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have and you’ll get it in the teeth,
give the world the best you’ve got anyway.
