Even when we are aspiring to do some good and maybe even make the world a little better, there may be someone lurking in the shadows waiting for us to fail with their discouragement and doubt. Sometimes it is unintentional and sometimes it is not, but regardless, I believe that is important to never give up on your dreams and to always continue to live life by your standard, not by someone else's. :)
"People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered; Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway."
It was never between you and them anyway."
~ Mother Theresa

This is a great one! I cant believe how good your drawings are, nailed it! ~ Yoli
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful teacher Mother Theresa was. How difficult it is to live by that simple philosophy. I guess if it wasn't, it wouldn't mean much... I have another suggestion: You may want to do a strip soon that highlights Angel's grace and attractiveness; she can't be that grumpy, right?
ReplyDeleteJenny Estrada demonstrates marvelous ability in her drawings while capturing those delightful moments between mother and child that are an important part of growing up. Good stuff, Jenny and thanks Russellbob for sharing it with us.
