Never regret anything that ONCE made you Smile. What it is -- Eternity in heaven is my lifetime goal. =) People are often unreasonable and self-centered. FORGIVE THEM ANYWAY. If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. BE KIND ANYWAY. If you are honest, people may cheat you. BE HONEST ANYWAY. If you find happiness, people may be jealous. BE HAPPY ANYWAY. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. DO GOOD ANYWAY. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough. GIVE YOUR BEST ANYWAY. For you see, in the end, IT IS BETWEEN YOU AND GOD; IT NEVER was between YOU and THEM ANYWAY. ~Mother Teresa
and this is what I hold in my pocket -- The Serenity Prayer --"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next. Amen." -Reinhold Niebuhr.
