Attraversiamo
My life as I know it is is changing drastically. There are some people who think I'm insane, who will never "approve" of how I plan to spend my life. But while I might not have a car, hot water readily available, the certainty of getting better if I get sick, or the comfort of my life now...I have faith in the fact that I will have more than most. More love, more passion, more purpose. Empowering children and helping those in need is my destiny. God told me so. "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. Be happy anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it's between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."
