People are often unreasonable and self-centered
Forgive them, anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives.
Be kind, anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you.
Be honest, anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous.
Be happy, anyway.
The good you do may be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you can and it may never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
Because you see in the end, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.

So often find people close themselves off and yet it only seems to result in the same hurt over and over again.
