The Best You've Got


First Sip / by CLAUDIA / 3 days ago

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 some 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,
others may be jealous;
be happy anyway.
The good you do today,
people will often forget tomorrow;
do good anyway.
If you give the world the best you have,
it may never be enough;
give the world the best you’ve got anyway.
