Favorite Mother Teresa Quote

My favorite quote is, If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one person who has nothing to eat. I like this quote because I know that I am not capable of called to do the work of Mother Teresa and I know that it is impossible for me to feed thousands of people as well. I do know that I can at least make a difference in one persons life. Watching Mother Teresa has made me think about what my calling is and I know that I want to be a Reproductive Endocrinologist, or fertility doctor, when I grow up. I know that I will not be able go help everyone that comes my way but I can at least help one person in my lifetime and even that is more than enough.

Loneliness Is The Greatest Poverty of Rich Countries

I believe that this statement is true because even though there is poverty in the third world countries and things like that, there is still poverty right next door. All the money in the world can not provide a feeling of love or fill that hole loneliness can create. I believe that rich people are equally just as unhappy and deprived like those suffering in other countries. Although they may not be suffering physically from starvation or dehydration, these people can suffer from other things such as selfishness, depression or many other problems. I believe that us there is nothing worse in this world than having s feeling of not being love. This reminds of the idea that would you rather love and never be loved or be loved but never love. I think both these apply in our countries today.

I think that people in our rich countries need to put themselves in other people's shoes to get a sense of what it really means to be blessed. I think we take things for granted and put material things in front of what really matters making it more susceptible to loneliness.

Thoughts On Reflection

I like that we do the Pray As You Go everyday before class. It gives me chance a to forget about school and everything and relax. I can take time out of my day and connect with God. Sometimes it's nice to forget everything and focus on whats important. I also like how the readings seem to tie in with something that we still face and still have to deal with. They are very relatable and easy to connect to
