<p><span style="color: #000000;"><em><strong>In Her Own Words</strong></em>, quotes by Mother Teresa </span>  <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/PAAVANJ/mother-teresa-slide-show-by-paavanj" target="_blank">http://www.slideshare.net/PAAVANJ/mother-teresa-slide-show-by-paavanj</a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Thanksgiving is a powerful concept.</strong> Thanks and giving are two outwardly focused ways of being. <em>Giving</em> because we all have something to give. Being <em>thankful</em> for what we have and what is our good fortune. Some take this further. Thanks and giving is their life&#8217;s mission.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #000000;"><em>I think of Mother Teresa. She gave to the poorest of the poor.</em></span></p></blockquote>
<p><span id="more-1831"></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Mother Teresa is the epitome of thanks + giving.</strong> There are few people equal to Mother Teresa with her on-going legacy that continues to replicate through the Sisters of Charity. Mother Teresa truly gave out of a heart full of love. She saw worth and value in the outcasts. She says it better than I, so I leave you with a slide show that gives us something to ponder. The words of Mother Teresa always grip my heart because I see humanity with its suffering, and I see a heart that loves out of its Christ-love. He, also, loved the &#8220;least of these.&#8221;</span></p>
