It is a day of love.
A day to recognize love and to
honor love.
Perhaps no other human in modern time has embodied this spirit so well as Mother Teresa of Calcutta. Her commitment to love - in loving the Christ she recognized in everyone was unshakable. And yet in her great strength she inspired countless others to rise above their own perceived limitations in offering and receiving love. A favorite quote -
“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.”
A religion could be built on these words alone.
Perhaps a religion should be
demonstrated by our
own commitment to living these
words.
I'm willing to start.
Peace.
And love,
Eric
