People are often unreasonable, irrational, self-centered & kind of annoying.
Friend them anyway.
If you tweet something encouraging & uplifting you may not get any retweets.
Tweet it anyway.
If you pin something & aren't sure you ever intend to make it, there will be people who doubt & people who will cheer for you & your glue gun.
Pin it anyway
If, on Facebook, you admit that your house is a pit or that your kids have never (not once) been on a soccer team, you may be judged & silently ridiculed.
Admit it anyway.
A dinner that you Instagram could be ignored & un-hearted by all of your followers.
Instagram it anyway.
You might like the status of something that most of your friends disagree with & then it shows up in their feed & they question you & everything they thought you stood for but maybe you were just impressed with the original poster's passion or maybe you really do agree with what they said even if it's not popular with your other friends.
Like it anyway.
If you write a status update about how happy you are right now #blessed some will be jealous
(or just roll their eyes).
Write it anyway.
Someone might say something on their Facebook & you have a feeling it's about you but you can't prove it & they would never admit to it.
Stay Facebook friends with them anyway (or if it happens a lot hide them & then maybe just unfriend them anyway).
A blog post where you told your top 26 reasons why everyone should watch A to Z (already canceled, sorry!) could go unread.
Blog it anyway.
Your friend might post a group picture from a really fun event & you are the only one whose eyes are closed & mouth is open (with some chips still in it).
Comment 'That was so fun! You guys are the best! Greasy Gorillas 4eva!!!' anyway.
You could share an article that meant so much to you that you cried actual real tears & no one will comment on it or like it.
Share it anyway.
The awesome picture you posted of your dog catching a frisbee with it's feet may never be mentioned by anyone you see in real life.
Post it anyway.
You might get a little crazy with the hashtags #lovethem #cantstop #wontstop #crazy #reallylovethem #alwayshatedthespacebaranyway #sorrynotsorry #hashtags4eva #reallycantstop #forrealz #helpme.
Hashtag the heck out of everything #anyway.
The World Wide Web is weird & hard to really get a handle on, enjoy it anyway.
In the final analysis, it's between you & God.
It was never between you & the internet anyway.

You might spend your entire hour-before-the-kids-wake-up writing a weird 2014 homage to Mother Teresa that people might read & shake their heads & say 'huh.'.
Push publish anyway.
