Mother Teresa

Growing up in the United States of America, especially in suburban New York, there has always been a certain definition of what success by money and material possesions, including the kind of car that they drive and how big their house is. But what truly makes a person successful? In examing this thought I have realized that tre success is when a person is happy and completely content with the lifestlye they have chosen and the benefits they receive within themselves by what they do. One person who fits the true definition of success is mother Teresa, a women who lived in Calcutta and devoted her life to the poorest of the poor, the suffuering and the dying.

Anges gonxha Bojaxhiu, was born in Skopje, Macedonia on August 26, 1910 into a middle class business family. Mother Teresa leardned about charity from her mother & father who never turned away from those in need whether seeking food, shelter, clothing, or even money. Her famalies life changed when her father died unexpectedly in 1917. The family was left with little money and the church became a very important part ot their lives. Mother Teresa was influenenced by the pastor of her church, Father Jambren Kovic. This preist introduced here to the work being don


Mother Teresa realized that she must accomplish a series of steps before being able to fulfill her calling. She took the advice of many and went through all the proper channels in the Higherarchy of the church. Her biggest obstacle was to be able to live outside a convent and with the people she was going to help. Being the ever-obedient servant of God, she waited patiently for over a year to begin her calling. "The second call, no less clear, differed from the first in that there was no established route to follow, no expectance at the Motherhouse, no period of novitiate. It would take her away from the life of a teaching nun and, for this, releases and permission had to be obtained. Passionately eager as she was to answer the new call, she would take no steps until these permissions had been accorded her. I am convinced that if these permissions had been slow in coming, or had taken the greater portion a city that reached its glory in the 19th Century and was called the second city of the British Empire. It started its decline in 1911 when the Capital was move to Delhi. Calcutta began to receive refugees from Pakistan and later from Bangladesh. Calcu by picking people up off the streets who were suffering and dying and brining them to hospitals. Oftenly they were turned away. This is when Mother Teresa realized that she must find a place for the suffering and dying to suffer and die in peace. She was offered a hostile that was a formally a Hindu temple now being used by squaters. She was happy to have it because it was a center of prayer for Hindus. She called the hostile Nirmal Hriday which in Begali for "pure or immaculate heart" in honor of the virgin Mary. It became known as the home for the dying! Mother Teresa was successful in taking up the cause of the dying in Calcutta because of her resistance to intimidation and her fearlessness in defending the helpless and the voiceless. ...........................

After starting her work with the sick and the dying Mother Teresa was led to the work of rescuing children. She again decided that the children of the streets of Calcutta needed a place where they could be cared for. Mother Teresa rented a house and named it Nimala Shishu Bharan, the Children's Home of the Immaculate. "I cannot give............ By 1958, there was 90 children who lived there. Every child was taught a certain skill so they could live a life of self respect. The home for the children also served other purposes. One was supplying food to homeless and starving famalies. Shishu Bahvan had a huge courtyard and became one the main distibuting centers. Over 9000 people where given food there per week.
