"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. "
Mother Teresa
иногда читаю эти слова, может быть жить так и не буду, но доброе и светлое в душе просыпается от них. А этого ведь не хватает миру - добра. А еще капельки тепла. И все дело ведь в каждом из нас. Ах знать бы где это золотая середина между порывами и разумом, и знать бы должна ли она быть вообще :) как все сложно у меня получается.
Вон еще один человек говорил и не заморачивался
"I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge.
That myth is more potent than history.
I believe that dreams are more powerful than facts.
That hope always triumphs over experience.
That laughter is the only cure for grief.
And I believe that love is stronger than death."
Robert Fulghum
И честно признаться, в глубине души мне тоже хочется вот так верить.
