Mother Teresa’s Wisdom on Life


During our family vacation in Maui, my stepmother handed me a card made from handmade paper upon which was an inspirational quote by Mother Teresa. It moved me, and I’d like to share it with you:



Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is a beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is life, fight for it.

            —Mother Teresa

I really enjoyed this, especially the "Life is Life, Fight for It" part. I found your site while googling "entitlement." I write a blog about yoga and culture called Thursdayyoga.com. It's more about living as a global citizen than having a physical yoga practice.
