I'm not worthy of wearing Mother's shoes
But your confidence in me
Gives me confidence in myself
For my beloved sisters, she and you did choose
Me! To head this congregation
But how does one replace Mother Teresa?
Perhaps we could start by taking inspiration from these lines
Which Mother loved so much
That she had them written on a wall
In her Home
People are often unreasonable, irrational and self-centered
Forgive them anyway
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives
Be kind anyway
If you're successful, you will win some unfaithful friends
And you will win some genuine enemies
Succeed anyway
If you are honest and sincere
People may deceive you with a false veneer
Be honest and sincere anyway
What you spend years in creating
Others could destroy overnight
Keep on creating anyway
If you find serenity, and if you should find happiness
Some may be jealous
Be happy anyway
Remember that the good which you do today
Will often be forgotten
Do good anyway
Give your best, and give it with a laugh
But it will never be enough
Give your best anyway
Cause in the end
It is between
You and God
It was never between you and them anyway
No, it was never between you and them anyway
