Nice quote from MT. And we should all try to do that little drop. But I can think of some people who should be doing much bigger ones, yet choose not to.
Best wishes, Pete.
A marvelous quote by Mother Teresa, Beth
“You may never know what results of your actions, but if you do nothing, there will be no results” – Mahatma Gandhi
the comment box has changed for some of my accounts i’m trying to comment on as well. i click on the little shape on the left corner and signs me back in, but only. happens on some of those i follow, not all –
Yes, I knew that one – and I also know the pic from many, many uploads here and there – which changes nothing in the truth of those words! And it’s the same with everything; every good deed (as well as the worst we can do) has its ripples and its ‘suite’.
Mmm…while many people agree with the sentiment, I’m afraid Mother Teresa is a bit of a problematic character. “The Missionary Position” by Christopher Hitchens is a rather damning indictment…
I’m reminded of the processes of water dripping on a stone, and of the wear of marble steps after hundreds of years of passage. Each of us is tiny, maybe even microscopic, when compared to the history of our planet… but each of us can take action, and, when added together, can make a real difference.
That’s such a powerful quote 👍 Small things matter, and it describes how void a community is if nobody contributes. ☺️💧
Thank you so much for sharing it, Beth
