Words by Mother Teresa |
The verses below were written by Mother Teresa and engraved on the wall of her home for children in Calcutta:
“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.”
Mother Teresa
