day 22

today i went with my baby girl to the library so she could go to storytime. while we were there i checked myself out a couple of books, one of which is a book about mother teresa who was one of the greatest humanitarians in history. the book is a book of her private writings, which i thought would be quite interesting to read. i have just barely started the book and there are a both of quotes in it that i thought were pretty good and thought provoking. they are.......
"put your hand in jesus' hand, and walk alone with him. walk ahead, because if you look back you will go back." (told to her by her mother as she leave home)
"if i ever become a saint-i will surely be one of darkness. i will continually be absent for heaven-to light the light of those in darkness on earth." (her mission statement)
i'm sure as i continue to read this book there will be more quotes to come.

peace.....
