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 it 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 never was between you and them anyway.
