People Are Unreasonable
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.
The good
you do will be forgotten tomorrow;
do good anyway.
Honesty
and frankness will make you vulnerable;
be honest and frank anyway.
What you
spend years building
may be destroyed overnight;
build anyway.
Give the
world the best you have
and you’ll get kicked in the teeth;
give the best you’ve got anyway.
On the walls of Shishu Bhavan,
Mother Teresa’s children’s home
in Calcutta
