See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...we need silence to be able… - Mother Teresa

Love begins at home, and every Co-worker* should try to make sure that deep family love abides in his or her home. Only when love abides at home can we share it with our next-door neighbor.

As always, we must persuade her with love... And we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts...
