Lord, make me an instrument of your peace: where there is hatred let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, light; where there is sadness, joy. Lord, may I not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. Because it is in giving that we receive, in pardoning that we are pardoned. Amen."

The Simple Path The fruit of silence is PRAYER The fruit of prayer is FAITH The fruit of faith is LOVE The fruit of love is SERVICE The fruit of service is PEACE.

Anyway People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centred. Love them anyway. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish motives. Do good anyway. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Honesty and transparency 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 help them. Help them anyway. Give the world the best you have and you may get hurt. Give the world your best anyway.
