do it anyway!

  
People are often unreasonable and self centred.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of alterier 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 today may be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
 
 
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.
 
Mother Teresa, 1979 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate

About me

I am an African living in Scotland. A son, a father, a husband, a teacher and friend trying to piece together the stories that my God, my parents, my wife, my pupils and my friends are telling me, so that I can tell my own story. Thanks to all for your support and advice. I still love good coffee and popcorn.
