The Pardoxical Commandments, for KO

[Guest guest]

The Paradoxical Commandments

My Christmas gift to my KO brothers and sisters.

People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.

Love them anyway.

Nada is all these things. She taught me I dare not love.

I ll love anyway.

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.

Do good anyway.

Nada accused me of selfishness despite the good I did.

I ll do good anyway.

If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.

Succeed anyway.

Nada was always my false friend when I succeeded. I didnt need enemies, with

nada as my friend.

I ll succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.

Do good anyway.

Nada has taught me any good I do will be forgotten at once.

I ll do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.

Be honest and frank anyway.

Nada has shown me my honesty will be exploited and used to attack me.

I ll be honest anyway.

The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the

smallest men and women with the smallest minds.

Think big anyway.

Nada has killed my passions and energies over and over with small minded cheap

shots.

I ll think big anyway.

People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs.

Fight for a few underdogs anyway.

Nada showed me that fighting for the loudest voice and biggest whiner is the

only way to peace.

I ll fight for the ones who have no voice, anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.

Build anyway.

I know that Nada will tear down the results of my work and effort, hoover away

anything I build.

I ll build anyway.

People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.

Help people anyway.

Boy did Nada show me this one! Nada will always attack me for trying to help,

and will throw my efforts back in my face. Nada taught me never to help anyone,

ever.

I ll help people anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.

Give the world the best you have anyway.

Nada kicked my teeth time and again, for the best I could possible do. She

taught me that giving my best was a waste of time.

I ll give my best anyway.

Nada taught me all I can do is in vain. Nada taught me I need not try.

I ll try anyway.

Merry Christmas, friends.
