Some Wise Words
Permalink  

Hi all, thought I'd pass these wise words along to all of you.


People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered, love them anyway.


If you do good, people may accuse you of selfish motives, do good anyway.


If you are successful, you may win false friends and true enemies, succeed anyway.


The good you do today may be forgotten tomarrow, do go anyway.


Honesty and trasparency make you vulnerable, be honest and transparent anyway.


What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight, build anyway.


People who really want help, may attack you if you give it to them, help them anyway


Give the world around you your best and you may get hurt, give the world your best anyway.


The world is full of conflict, choose peace of mind anyway.


Lots of love, Trina


p.s. those aren't my wise words darn it, but i like them heehee

Adam and Eve, or the first humans to grunt in sequence had the first words. Those words you shared are your words if you want them. Once words leave your mouth they fly free, no longer an owned thought.


Hugs & Luv,

Thank you TT!! I also had that written in my paths to recovery book (which I call my big book heehee), but had no idea where I had heard it or who wrote it at all.  Now I can give credit where credit is due.


Lots of love, Trina
