Just a reminder when people you love and know let you down.

Remember:People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered.
Love them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.
If your successful, you'll win false friends and make true enemies.
Try to succeed anyway.
Honesty and frankness will get you nowhere, they make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.
People favor the underdogs, but they follow the Top dogs.
Fight for some underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building, may be destroyed overnight.
I'v seen and experienced this happen.
Build it anyway.
People really need help, but they attack you if you try to help them.
Try anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and you'll get kicked in the mouth.
give the world the best you have anyway.

There is no set path, follow your heart stay the course.

Ann - I just love this! It's very similar to - but not the same as - a quote by Mother Teresa that I have hanging in my living room! :) Thanks for sharing! - Nini

God gave us two hands... one to help ourselves, and one to help others!
