Thought for the Day

Anyway



People are often unreasonable, illogical 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 false friends and some true enemies;

Succeed anyway.



If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;

Be honest and frank anyway.



What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;

Build anyway.



If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;

Be happy anyway.



The good you do today, 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.



You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God;

It was never between you and them ... anyway.






Mother Teresa’s Anyway poem

[If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion] - Dalai Lama
 
[When people are motivated mostly by greed and jealousy, it is not possible for them to live in harmony. A spiritual approach may not provide an overnight solution to all the political problems caused by our present self-centered approach, but in the long run it will address the very basis of the problems that we face today, removing them at the root] - His Holiness Dalai Lama

That reminds me of Nietzsche's admonition to ... "Give style to one's character" and thereby turn oneself into a work of art.

Pink Floyd comes to mind today.



Tell me true tell me why was Jesus crucified

Is it for this that daddy died?

Was it for you? was it me?

Did I watch too much t.v.?

Is that a hint of accusation in your eyes?

If it wasn't for the nips

Being so good at building ships

The yards would still be open on the clyde

And it can't be much fun for them

Beneath the rising sun

With all their kids committing suicide

What have we done maggie what have we done

What have we done to England

Should we shout should we scream

"What happened to the post war dream?"

Oh Maggie Maggie what have we done?
