some true enemies;

People may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, may seem insignificant in the eyes of others,

The better you become at it, the more difficult and challenging it will be.
Be disciplined 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.

The people you serve may be unlikable, ungrateful and unimpressed by your dedication.
Love and serve them anyway.

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

Honesty, humility and simplicity make you vulnerable.

Give the world the best you have,
and it may never be enough;

You see, in the final analysis.
it is between you and God;
It is never between you and them anyway.
