Mother Teresa's Teachings

Mother Teresa: I work for the people, because I feel I must do something. It's law of nature that the good you do, will be forgotten tomorrow. But the good work must be carried on. Your honesty and frankness will expose you to problems but your work should not stop for it means the world to so many people. Years of your hard work may be destroyed overnight, that should not deter you from building upon your hard work. Despite giving your best to the world, you may be kicked in the teeth. Give the best you've got anyway. It is not the size of our actions but the amount of love and care that is put into them that matters. You should never lose heart. God is merciful and kind- he has endowed you with the best gift- smile, which can make millions happy.

Let the love and light of the Kingdom radiate through you until all who look upon you shall be illumined by its reflection. Be as stars, brilliant and sparkling in the loftiness of their heavenly station ” Man is the product of his thoughts. What he thinks, he becomes. Satisfaction does not come with achievement, but with effort. Full effort is full victory. First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age. You may never know what results come of your action, but if you do nothing there will be no result. Almost anything you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is...
