"The Sound of Truth"
By: Notes from the Elder.
DO IT ANYWAY
People are often unreasonable, illogical, & self centered;
Forgive them ANYWAY.
If you are kind,
people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;
Be kind ANYWAY.
If you are sucessful,
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.
If you find serenity, and hapiness,
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've got ANYWAY.
You see, in the final analysis,
It's between you, and God.
It never was between you, and them, ANYWAY.
Lord bless,
Elder Jim
