Trip Inside

Hello again, I wanted to share a poem written by Mother Teresa that really could be the story of my life and goes a long way in showing who I am, after the poem I explain a few things:

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 your God;
It was never between you and them anyway.

Well, let me get started, first off I have always been an extremely forgiving person, even at times when the person might really deserve it or want it, I always choose to forgive.  I always see it this way, I know I make mistakes I would like to be forgiven for, so I feel I should be the same towards those who make mistakes towards me, basically you reap what you sow type mentality, I sow kindness and forgiveness.  I am extremely giving and kind, I am extremely selfless, I almost always put other's before myself for good reason, and many times as a result people think I have selfish and ulterior motives, and the reality is I don't.  I truly want to see people happy and successful, and yes I would like the same for myself, but I would be kind and generous even if I gained nothing in return.  That is simply who I am, my love is truly unconditional.

I have been successful and spent years building great things, and many times I make enemies who are jealous and many times they'll take it all away in the blink of an eye, but I don't give up, I simply rebuild and reclaim my success through God.  People do often forget the good things I do quickly, and they often carry the bad things I do forever, but that doesn't matter in the end, because I know my good deeds far outweigh my bad deeds, and I know God knows that, and those who truly know me know that as well.  I will always give my best in all I do, and there are times I will still fail, but it will change my efforts, I believe you go all out or you don't go at all.  Win or lose, do your best.  I live my life in a way that I know would please God, help other's and in the end it makes me happy.

Look no farther then the woman I love, everything I say I'll do, I do it, I am a man who follows through on his promises and takes action.  I have always let me actions speak more than my words, I am the first to help, the first to give, the first to compliment, the first to love, and she knows this.  Just because I don't broadcast what I'm doing or my actions does not mean they aren't happening, I just choose to do them for the right reasons and not for the glory.

My actions have allowed me to rebuild my success and it starts today, I got my job making more than I was at my old job, a lot more, and it's a result of me not giving up and God's true blessings in which I am thankful for.  I am also thankful for the prayers of those who loved me enough to pray for me.  And I will give my best as always to this job, I will be kind and giving, I will not change who I am.  And if it all goes away again, I'll just simply get back up and start over again.
