Mother Teresa definitely had it right!


Today, 
and in the course of the 
last few weeks
these words have 
meant so much to me.

So I'm sharing them with you.
Mother Teresa had it right. 
She was amazing.
I can't wait to meet her in heaven 
and say thank you
for your wisdom
and 
for your words that have helped me 
through impossible and very tough
circumstances. 

I hope these words,
brighten your day,
encourage you, 
and guide you
as they have done
and 
will keep doing
for me. 
Happy Friday My Dear Friends! 


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.”'
 –Mother Teresa

Great words of wisdom. I have been called miss goody two shoes sometimes by others who don't like me. Too bad. I live life according to God's word, not people's ways. Have a good day over there! Hugs!
