People are often unreasonable,
Illogical and self-centred.
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind,
People may accuse u
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 spent years building,
Someone can destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness;
They may be jealous,
Be happy 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 final analysis,
It is between you and god.
It is never between
You and them anyway.
