*Coffee conversation:*People are often unreasonable, irrational, 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 unfaithful friends and some genuine
enemies. Succeed anyway.If you are honest and sincere, people may
deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.What you spend years
creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.If you find
serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.The good
you do today will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.Give the best you
have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between
you and them anyway.
