Legacy

Recommended Posts

I want to share this quote and poem because they act as a reminder to myself that actions speak louder than words every time...and that leaving a legacy is about making a difference and doing it anyway when it comes to acting.

 

Blue

 

“A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove...but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.â€

 

Forest E. Witcraft

 

 

 

DO IT ANYWAY

Written By Mother Theresa

 

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 God;

It was never between you and them anyway
