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
