I Wish You Enough

I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how gray the day may appear.

I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.

I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.

I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger.

I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.

I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.

I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.

Between you & God

The good you do today,
People will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

If you are successful,
you will win some false friends
and some true enemies,
Succeed anyway.

If you are kind,
people accuse you of being selfish
and having ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

What you spend years building
Someone may try to destroy overnight.
Build anyway.

If you are honest and frank
people may cheat you.
Be honest and frank anyway.

Give the world the best you have and
it may never be enough
Give the world the best you have anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness
They may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.

You see in the final analysis
it's between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.
