I read once that Mother Teresa had terrible doubts nearly her whole life about God. And yet she persisted in living a life that was a true example of all that is scared. I think she is all the more inspoiring for following what she knew to be right in spite of her doubts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34955137.post-47697924367132250492008-06-03T02:11:00.000-07:002008-06-03T02:11:00.000-07:00"If we have no peace, it is because we have forgot..."If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other."<BR/><BR/>I'm taking this into my day with me.

Mother Theresa was an extraordinary woman, but I'll bet she saw herself as rather ordinary in the beginning (or maybe in the end too) just living her life and loving truly and wholly, in her sphere.

I, too, love to watch movies with my Saturday or Sunday morning coffee - it feels so decadent somehow to start the day *relaxing*.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes I am overwhelmed by what is happening in our world, to our planet. It feels like my tiny actions can't possibly undo the damage. Thank you for the inspirational quotes.QThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15544956727530046973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34955137.post-61973649455189808422008-06-01T19:35:00.000-07:002008-06-01T19:35:00.000-07:00What a lovely post, lovely quotes from a beautiful...What a lovely post, lovely quotes from a beautiful woman.

Those words should be engraved on our hearts because we tend to believe that if we are not visibly loved in return, we failed and our love was wasted.<BR/><BR/>You are very wise to monitor your own intake because so much information available to us does not elevate our spirits in any way, and THAT is a waste of our energy.heartinsanfranciscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07535397382991383931noreply@blogger.com
