Movie Talk

I watched "The Letters" over the weekend and I thought about how Mother Theresa, as the world came to know her had served the poor so diligently.  This woman devoted her life to a work because of what God had lead her to do.  Though opposition arose from many around her, she still wanted to serve.  She expected it and prepared herself for it, but she never ceased from striving to do her work.  As in most great work, it comes with a price.  Even as a young woman, she sacrificed much and this story proves that she was still disheartened and lonely just as everyone gets which showed her humane and feminine side.  I respect her more as an individual because oftentimes when we promote individuals and their heroic deeds, we do not look at the down side of their sacrifices and real feelings.  Check the movie out when you get the chance...and ask yourself as I did...how much are you really willing to sacrifice to continue "your" work and get the job done?  Mother Theresa is a good example and has always inspired me.  Hopefully, this movie will inspire you too.
