I HAVE COME TO REALIZE THAT THE FOLLOWING ARE SOME OF THE HARD FACTS OF LIFE

1. No matter what you say and how you say it, SOME people will never get it.
   That's not your fault!
   #Sad, But True!

2. No matter how pure your motives are, SOMEBODY will still accuse you of ill intentions.
   Stay pure anyway.
   #Sad, But True!

3. No matter how humble you are, somebody will still consider you proud. Stay humble, anyway.
   #Sad, But True!

4. No matter how generous you are, somebody will still call you "selfish". Remain generous, anyway.
   #Sad, But True!

5. Sometimes some of your greatest pains will come from those you gave the most pleasure.
   #Sad, But True!

6. Some of your greatest disappointments will come from those you gave your best appointments or commitments. #Sad, But True!

7. Sometimes some of the worst things you'd hear about yourself may come from those you speak the best of. #Sad, But True!

8. Not everyone in your ship is paddling in the direction of your dreamed destination.
   Discernment is key. #Sad, But True!

9. Loving people sometimes means feeling used by them.
   #Sad, But True!

10. Sometimes, doing the right thing ends up making you look like a fool.
    #Sad, But True!

11. Some people may think this piece is targeted at them. No. Everyone alive will need one of the points at one time or the other.

Sad, But True!
