Week of January 31, 2016

This week I ran across a nice meditation I would like to share with you. It’s entitled: “Do it anyway.”

“Do it Anyway…”

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.

(attributed to Mother Teresa of Calcutta)

Be at peace anyway! Fr. LeRoy Scheierl
