The Paradoxical Commandments

These are not quotes. This is simply the truth.

"" ... 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 end, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway.... "" - Mother Teresa
