"Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.” ― Mother Teresa

Mother Teresa has some amazing quotes.  I was always drawn to her and her willingness to give so openly and so beautifully.  A few years ago, when I noticed my daughter succumbing to the "wants versus needs" confusion that we are all victims of in our complicated world, I had her read Mother Teresa's biography.  I read it too and discovered that we share a birthday, August 26th.   It seems lately that her quotes are all around me.  One of my favorite quotes was given to me by my friend Jessie and made by Signifiprints


I keep carrying it around my house.  I have to find just the right place for it.  I want to order this print for our bedroom:


You can find it on etsy.


Here is another favorite:

"Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.” 
― Mother Teresa

and another favorite as I embark as a volunteer on my parish's pro-life committee:

"It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.” 
― Mother Teresa


My dream blog would be one written by Mother Teresa - what a kick of daily inspiration that would be!
