Great quote for those of us who care what others think too much!


"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 was never between you and them anyway.”

- Mother Teresa

(Saw this quote on this blog http://5millionminus1.blogspot.com/ today, and thought I would share.  Thanks Natalie!)

  2. Hi! Thanks for your comment on my blog! The waiting is so hard, I know!

    I love Mother Theresa! I just finished reading her biography to my kids for school and I couldn't stop crying :) Over and over people would say that she is just so "ordinary" and they couldn't believe how God had used her to touch so many people in her lifetime.
    It is such an encouragement to us though- to know that God used the ORDINARY to accomplish His purposes!
    Looking forward to following along on your journey!
