Apologies to Mother Teresa

by Matt Triewly

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered.

Fuck ‘em.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.

Fuck ‘em. And eat the last biscuit.

If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies.

Fuck ‘em too.

If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you.

Learned anything so far? Fuck ‘em.

What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight.

Fuck ‘em first.

If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous.

They will be jealous. But fuck ‘em.

The good you do today, will often be forgotten.

So do a bad thing – that won’t be forgotten. And fuck ‘em.

Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway…

Yeah right. Fuck ‘em.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God…

Who? Ah fuck it…

I guess I’m just in one of those moods…
