Mother Teresa
Mother Teresa carried in many thousands of people over her lifetime. She carried the untouchables, those dying on the streets, into shelter, and allowed them the honor of dying with dignity and surrounded by loving care.
She was interviewed a few weeks before she died. She was asked by a photo-journalist “What is the biggest event that has happened in your life?” She said “It just happened. We served our 30,000th person here in Calcutta.”
“What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learned in carrying 30,000 people?” Mother Teresa answered: “If you don’t carry the first person in, you’ll never carry the 30,000th person in.”
