“Work…”
“The work will always be there but if we do not rest and pray, we will not have the presence to do our work.” – Teresa of Calcutta
Mother Teresa of Calcutta was extremely lucky....while she goes around doing work with the poor, her "mother-in-love" is in heaven serenely enjoying the melodious harps of her son's angels....try multi-tasking in the heat of Philippine summer with your mother-in-law breathing down your neck and chattering incessantly, unmindful of your agony amidst the task...tsk..tsk.tsk...boom...you just want to fire a cannon!
