Prayer: Lord, grant that I may
seek rather to comfort than to be
comforted; to understand rather
than be understood; to love rather
than be loved, for it is by forgetting
self that one finds. It is by forgiving
that one is forgiven. It is by dying
that one awakens to eternal life.
Amen.

Additional quotes by Mother Teresa

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 maybe jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today maybe 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.

The biggest diease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted, uncared for, and deserted by everybody.
