Do it any way…
People are often unreasonable, irrational and self-centred. 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.

*This morning when I woke up thinking about Father’s day and what I can do for this man I really, really without any doubt, truly love. He is the father of my children but also mine, mine forever to love. This piece came to my mind. It was found written on Mother Teresa’s wall in her home.
It made me think of my husband’s past and what kind of person he really is deep down.
So while I made his coffee this morning and put some shortbread cookies on a plate to serve him in bed, I started thinking of my own version of this piece that is related to my husband.
My love,
You’ve had some awful experiences as a child, but you found your happiness anyway.
People accused you of things you did not do, but you stayed true and confident anyway.
You had so many opportunities to make the wrong choices as attractive they may have seemed, but you chose the right ones anyway.
You did not have many opportunities for a bright future, still you decided to start humbly at the bottom and work hard anyway.
My family did not think you were good enough for me at some point, but you stayed with me anyway.
People judged you for being you, but you stayed yourself anyway.
People judged you for fighting for what you believed in, you fought anyway.
I broke your trust once before we got married; you forgave and trusted me anyway.
Sometimes I try to control you, but you lead me anyway.
Sometimes you do not understand why, but you spank me anyway ;)
You do not have all that you need to be the father that you desire to be, but every day you wake up and give your everything, you love anyway.
So today I want to say to you, no matter how far we are from where we want to be, I LOVE YOU ANYWAY!
Thank you. You are awesome in so many ways.
