Amen.

My mom is letting me borrow a lovely book called The Joy in Loving which is a fantastic book with quotes of Mother Teresa for a whole year. I actually am starting today as I was at the ocean on New Years (in a yurt, nontheless). This is today's quote:
It is very important for us to relaize that love, to be true, has to hurt. I must be willing to give whatever it takes not to harm other people and, in fact, to do good to them. This requires that I be willing to give until it hurts. Otherwise there is no true love in me and I bring injustice, not peace, to those around me.
Mother Teresa was a wise, wise woman. Praise God for her words and how well she knew Him. Yurt-expedition related photographs will come soon. :)
