DO IT ANYWAY

If you are
kind,
people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful,
you will win some false friends and true enemies;
Succeed anyway.
If you are
honest and frank,
people may cheat you;
Be honest anyway.
people may cheat you;
Be honest anyway.
What you
spend years building,
someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
If you find
serenity and happiness,
they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
The good you
do today,
people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
Give the
world the best you have,
and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.
and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.
You see, in
the final analysis,
it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
(Mother Teresa)
Sudah lama menyukai puisi ini, akhirnya hari ini saya berpikir untuk mempostingnya di blog. "In the final analysis, it is between you and God" menjadi kata penutup yang elegan. Terasa benar, ketika kita menjadikan orang sebagai tolak ukur, kita mungkin akan banyak berputus asa. Tetapi Alloh tahu apa-apa yang kita kerjakan. Alloh tahu seberapa banyak kita telah berusaha. Do it anyway :)
