From Mother Teresa

I never get tired of these clouds.
I never get tired of these clouds.

“Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is life, fight for it.”

~ Mother Teresa

  1. Buenos Dias Amigo Felipe!

    What a great quote to start the day with. I would have loved to meet this incredible woman. There should be a mandatory class for everybody to study her life. So much strength and goodness contained in such a fragile looking little body. We should all be so strong. I can think of praying this everyday and picking the one line that will be most applicable for that day. I think most days fall in the line “Life is a Duty, complete it.” But there are many days when many of the other lines jump out front.

    You’ve made my day already Amigo. Gracias!

    1. PFJ ~ yes it is a jewel! It is so clean and fresh and get off your butt. Ellen, an old friend of Jennifer’s just sent that to me. Glad you like it. PFF.

  2. BTW, “my” Sydney Angela is walking across Europe with the European Peace Walkers. They’re a group highlighting the horrors of WW1 that was raging across Europe 100 years ago now. They’ve been walking thru a terrible heat wave and it’s taking a toll on the hikers, both mentally and physically. So, I sent her Mother Teresa’s prayer that you so providently provided. Gracias from all!
