Words of the Divine Mother in the Guise of a Human Nun

Many years have passed since her return to the Divine abodes; but as i was churning through my files and docs, I came across these words said by the late great Mother Teresa, who to me was truly a face of Compassion, an earthly manifestation of the Divine Mother to show us true love, true grace and true sacrificial love. I wanted to remember these words, because as with all Spiritual Paths the essence of practice is to go against the tides of Despair that threaten to steer us away from the Ultimate Goal... but as Mother here points out, we should utilise these very tides and use them to propel ourselves forward into a growth of Mind, Body and Spirit. Om Mani Padme Hum.

Words of the Great Mother Teresa the true face of Compassion on Earth.



Do It Anyway!

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered-- Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives-- Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies-- Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you-- Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight-- Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous-- Be happy anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough-- Give the world the best you've got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God-- It was never between you and them -- anyway. – Mother Teresa
