Dr. Frankenstein knew
people would jabber about the adorable little girl he had made. Still, he didn’t
have to worry about the townspeople running away in fear.
My offering this week was a little lame, so I've included a quote I've loved since I saw it posted on a classroom door:
People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them
anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous of you. Be
happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten. Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it will never be
enough. Give your best anyway.
For, you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It never was between you and them, anyway. ~Version of a quote usually attributed to Mother Teresa

ReplyDeleteNOOOO I loved your offering! - but am glad you jabbered on with that lovely quote &*<> YAM xx
Thank you, YAM!!
DeleteCertainly she is NOT to be feared. Frankenstein had better watch his step though.
ReplyDeleteI like the sign you found. I would have put it on my door window (back when I had a door--I'm retired now).
..
I guess people might run away from those muddy hands, though. ;) Wasn't that sign wonderful? This woman's classroom had such a nice "energy," too. My guess is whatever inspired the sign helped a lot.
DeleteGreat job, Tammy. Love your story about the little girl. And your quote from Mother Teresa is a favorite--and so true!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Donna!
DeleteThe little "story" fit the photo perfectly, but the quote was inspiring.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sioux. Isn't that a great quote?
DeleteYes, she's not exactly a scary creature, but I wouldn't shake hands with her.
ReplyDeleteGood one, Pat!
DeleteLove your ultra-short tale and the quote. This is the second time I've come across that quote this week. Maybe the universe is trying to tell me something.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lisa! I don't know, but I think it's a good message for the universe to pass along.
DeleteIf she were a younger girl I'd be worried, really worried about that substance on her hands. I absolutely love the Mother Teresa Quotes.
ReplyDeleteEwww! That never occurred to me, Linda!
DeleteI liked it!
ReplyDeleteAnd of course, that quote from Mother Teresa ought to be tattooed on every heart.

Thanks, Pat, and I love the words, "tattooed on every heart."
DeleteNo, they probably would not run from her in fear unless they hate getting dirty.
ReplyDeleteMother Theresa was such a wise woman. I've seen that quote before and am glad you shared it.
Thank you, Judy! And thanks for stopping by!
DeleteLittle Frankie needs somebody to push up that white cap for her. Obviously, she can't do it.
ReplyDeleteThat's probably closer to the true story, Val!
DeleteUntil they saw her eyes...
ReplyDeleteOoooh...{{{{shivver}}}}!
DeleteYou are so good with these little meme's or whatever they are called. I LOVE the quote. Such a good thing to live by.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Lynn!
