What a great example!

I have a lot on my mind tonight, and without weighing  you down with my problems (which isn’t motivating ), I am going to find 3 great things about today.
First… is I got to sew a lot of things for my little grandson, who is to be born in 3 weeks. I have been trying so hard not to count, that the time has gone faster than I thought and so I sewed and sewed the day away. Second…I got to talk to an old friend today, and we are going to get to reconnect this week, I am excited to see her again!  And Third… I found this wonderful poster, with this photo and quote on it. Mother Teresa was truly a great example to us all. She didn’t have to tell people what her religious beliefs were… she just lived them! 

Thank you for all of your examples to me and my family too. They have truly made a great difference in our lives!

“People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.”

Mother Teresa

“Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.”     ~Mother Teresa

“Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.”   ~ Mother Teresa
