Advice and observation

12 Sep 2017

Hello LPG,

 I have some advice for my fellow readers.  I just get started and then let my pen get carried away and the following is the most recent result of my industry…

 

Advice and observation

People are often unreasonable and self-centred

Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of inferior 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

 

Before you pray…                 Believe

Before you speak…              Listen

Before you spend…              Think

Before you quit…                 Try

Before you die                      LIVE

 

CMJ, Brockley
