[livejournal.com profile] 1_silly_grl added me to her friends list - it does happen, once in a while. Someone adds me first -

And she's a keeper -

About the only post I could see was her last one, back in June - but it's so appropriate for a Sunday morning, the current situations raging all about - I gotta share.

She attributes this to Mother Teresa, I think she's right:

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 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 final analysis, it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
