Why the World Is Upside Down

Why the World Is Upside Down

Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Jesus taught us how to forgive out of love, how to forget out of humility. So let us examine our hearts and see if there is any unforgiven hurt - any unforgotten bitterness!

It is easy to love those who are far away. It isn't always easy to love
those who are right next to us. It is easier to offer food to the
hungry than to answer the lonely suffering of someone who lacks love
right in one’s own family.

The world today is upside down because there is so very little love in the
home, and in family life. We have no time for each other. Everybody is
in such a terrible rush, and so anxious…and in the home begins the
disruption of the peace of the world.
