“Peace begins with a smile”.

Mother Teresa

Peace is a state of mind.When the troubles of the world overwhelm you, reflecting on a few words of inspiration from the scripture or quotes from great thinkers and inspirers like Mother Teresa that can inspire hope and a renewed focus on living a life of love, service, and faith.

One of the greatest benefactors of humanity of our modern era, Saint Teresa of Calcutta, as she was called after her canonization in 2016, showed the world how to love and serve the less privileged and the wretched of the earth around her when she was here.

Mother Teresa was small in size and stature, she made up for it in her zeal and dedication to the people she loved and helped—most often those who were seen as outcasts and marginalized by their communities. When the devoted nun of Albanian descent won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979, she donated her entire cash prize to the poor in India by putting smiles on their face.

You may not be Mother Teresa but you can be a star in somebody else sky like a twinkle twinkle Little star and put a smile on somebody else face and makes the world a peaceful place.

God is not a Christian, Muslim or Animist.He is in us and we are His image of the true God. Humanity comes before science, religion or culture.Let us End Racism,Build Peace and Engage in the work of humanity to make the world a better place for us all.
