This is Mother Teresa's words uttered before her death: "If I picked someone who is hungry from the road, I give him a plate of rice, a loaf of bread. But a person whose heart is closed, the feeling unneeded, unloved, in fear, someone who has been banished from society - such spiritual poverty is much more difficult to overcome. "
Those who are materially poor can be a beautiful person. One evening we went out, and picked up four people from the street. And one of them is in very poor conditions. I told the sisters: "You take care of the three; I will care for that person who looks the worst."
So I do for him everything that can be done, with love of course. I put him in bed and he held my hand while he only said one word: "Thank you" - then he died.
I can not not have to examine my own conscience. And I ask: "What would I say, if I become him?" and my answer was simple. I might try looking for a little attention to myself . Maybe I said: "I'm hungry, I nearly died, I'm cold, I'm in pain, or other". But he gave me a lot more out of love thanksgiving. And he died with a smile on his face. Then there's a man - a man who we pick up from the gutter, his body partly eaten by caterpillars, and after we take him to the care home he simply said: "I have lived like an animal on the road, but I will die like an angel, loved and cared for. "Then, after we finished throwing all the caterpillars of the body, which he said with a smile was:" Mother, I will go home to God. " Then he died.
So beautiful to see people with great souls are not blaming anyone, it does not compare himself with the other people. Like an angel, this is a great soul of the people who are spiritually rich, while poor materially.
Life is an opportunity, use it. Life is beauty, admire it. Life is a dream, realize it. Life is a challenge, face it. Life is a duty, fulfill it. Life is a game, live it. Life is expensive, keep it. Life is wealth, keep it. Life is love, enjoy 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, skip it. Life is luck, execute it. Life is too precious, do not destroy it. Life is LIFE, fight for it ...
Nice story from Mother Theresa.
