Confession 10 - Monday Inspiration

With a sick kid and a migraine, I'm still managing to get Confession 10 out to you guys! I know, I rock right? I was in San Diego for the weekend and have some killer photos to share, but those will have to wait till tomorrow when I am feeling better now. Today, I'm confessing that I love inspirational quotes and poems! Sometimes, they immerse in the blogsphere at such opportune times, more times than not, they are just meant to be!

I read this one this morning on Becky Higgins blog, here, and had to repost it on my blog. It's so perfect for today. I might even break out my Silhouette and make a sign with it. I'm {{crushing}} that much over it!

This is a poem that was on one of the walls in Mother Teresa's home in Calcutta, India. It seems like they aren't all her original words, but some are. I hope they inspire and {{crush}} you like they did me...

People are often unreasonable, irrational, 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 unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.


Thanks for stopping by and I hope you liked my latest confession!
