A Poem By Mother Teresa

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.

  • This is my favorite quote of hers - I never get tired of hearing it:

    Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.
  • Her words are pure divine.
    • That's a funny one...
    • I like that quote too!
  • I've always had a great Love for this prayer from Mother Theresa. I am finding myself saying more and more frequently these days.....Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. It appears to me, however, that with the "discovery" and use of the internet, all the access to Spiritual teachings that there is less and less excuse for ignorance. All a person desiring to know Truth needs to do is ask for it, and they will be lead to it. It's so readily available today. Of course, as always, one needs to use discernment.

  • I like this one. I'm gonna copy and paste it again...
