If you are honest and transparent, then some people may try to cheat you--BE HONEST AND TRANSPARENT ANYWAY!
Many people are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered--FORGIVE THEM ANYWAY!
When you spend years building something that someone else could destroy overnight--BUILD IT ANYWAY!

The good you do today, people may forget tomorrow--DO GOOD ANYWAY!
If you give others the best you have, then it may never be enough--GIVE YOUR BEST ANYWAY!
Why?
