We didn’t got to Calcutta (Kokata) when we were India , but one of the students has. She arranged to work (volunteer) a day in one of Mother Theresa’s missions. I would love to do that and hope to do so , if we return.
Blessings to you !

If you are referring to India, all my blog from 2/13 – 5/13 is incredible India. I was there for 4 months and traveled quite a bit. Check it out. Even after returning to the States I have posts on India. Read y “About” page if you haven’t!

OK I will do that. Yes I was referring to India. Sorry I just thought Calcutta and MT. I know her entire life story so I think everyone knows what I’m talking about. I am going to take a break and check that out now.

Anne, I started doing some research on this quote, and found that it is often wrongly attributed to Mother Teresa. The original poem is called the Paradoxical Commandments and a version of the poem hung on the walls of her office in Calcutta. The original doesn’t have the last two lines (which I think give such beautiful meaning to the quote).

That is very interesting. I am sorry I published something that was incorrect. I am curious what made you think it should be researched. . . . . good call.

Actually I loved the words so much, I wanted to use the quote. So I thought I should just do some research about them. Nonetheless it’s a beautiful quote and very inspiring. Somehow attributing them to Mother Teresa gives the words more weight don’t you think? It’s a very common attribution BTW.

I am impressed because that is what we should do before using something. It all did sound to me as if they were her words. And yes, very encouraging and inspiring.
