How do I know about the world? I know the world by what is in me.
'Many today are starving for ordinary bread. But there is another kind of hunger - the hunger to be wanted, to be loved, to be recognized. Nakedness too is not just the want of clothes, but also about loss of dignity, purity, and self-respect. And homelessness is not just want of a house; there is the homelessness of being rejected, of being unwanted in a throwaway society. The biggest disease in the world today is the feeling of being unwanted and uncared for. The greatest ill in the world is lack of love, the terrible indifference towards one's neighbor.'
Mother Teresa
Be kind to the kind and kind-er to the un-kind
PARADOX
Wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints;
We spend more, but have less;
More convenience, but less time;
We have more degrees, but less sense;
More knowledge, but less judgement;
More experts, but more problems;
More medicine, but less wellness;
We have more science, but less
people understanding it;
We talk too much, love too seldom,
and hate too often;
We've learned how to make a living,
but not a life;
We've added years to life, not life to years;
We've cleaned up the air,
but polluted ourself;
We have more leisure, but less fun;
It is a time when there is much in the
show window
and nothing in the stockroom.
