Give the World the Best You've Got

1) People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered; love them, anyway.
2) If you do good, people will accuse you of ulterior motives; do good, anyway.
3) If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies; succeed, anyway.
4) The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow; do good, anyway.
5) Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable; be honest and frank, anyway.
6) People favor underdogs, but follow only top dogs; fight for some underdogs, anyway.
7) What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight; build, anyway.
8) People really need help, but may attack if you help them; help people anyway.
9) Give the world the best you've got and you'll get kicked in the teeth; give the world the best you've got, anyway.

Have you ever heard the proverb: No good deed goes unpunished. ?

[spawnfan101]

This video definately sums up your belief system, but it doesn't explain why you believe it.

[PointsofOriginII]

Experience!

[VortexHumanoid]

Although I don't believe in religion, I do agree with and respect the rest of your video anyways.

[PointsofOriginII]

Thank you. And it's your right not to believe in religion.

Sry, my friend was watching this video on my account and made a stupid comment.

This video bored me to death.

The teaching of Buddha that life is permeated with suffering caused by desire, that suffering ceases when desire ceases, and that enlightenment obtained through right conduct, wisdom, and meditation releases one from desire, suffering, and rebirth.

The religion represented by the many groups, especially numerous in Asia, that profess varying forms of this doctrine and that venerate Buddha.

this is not anonymous - it is the paradoxical commandments Dr. Kent Keith is known nationally and internationally as the author of the Paradoxical Commandments, which he wrote and published in 1968 in a booklet for student leaders.

His book, Anyway: The Paradoxical Commandments was published by G. P. Putnam's Sons in April 2002, and became a national bestseller.

Very wonderful and inspiring!

It's not anonymous. It's from Mother Teresa. It's a mystery why she vowed to do these things other than "anyway". That's unfortunate because without purpose, we are but hydrogen and time. Nothing could be further from the truth however.
