prose

People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered.
Love them anyway.

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Do good anyway.

If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.

The biggest person with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest person with the smallest mind.
Think big anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway.

People really need help but may attack if you help them.
Help people anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you might get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.

Cheryl, I see your up early in the morning also. I hope it's not because of pain. You inspire me.Thanks for putting a cheer on one of my goals on 43 things. Because of you I intend to become more active on 43 things. I too want to fill in my list. I'm on your prayer team now. Good luck beating this thing.Thanks for the post today. I have a question. If you didn't mind could I from time to time use a picture off of your post on my blog? I would always link back to you. Check out my blog at Justakrusen.blogspot.com. If you would rather I didn't that wouuld be ok. I just wanted to ask first though. Thanks again for the inspiration. I'll be praying for you.
