It Never Was Between You and Them Anyways

People are ofter unreasonable, illogical and self-ceentered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish 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 sincere, people may deceive you;
Be Honest and sincere 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 them your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It Never Was Between You And Them Anyway.
-Mother Theresa
I love this quote because it's so true. How often do we not do what we know is right because we're afraid of what people think. But we "need not fear, only Believe" God is on our side when were doing whats right and that is the only friend we really need. Even if everyone else leaves us we will still have him and that is the greatest comfort in the world.
