In Others’ Words: Life

“Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.

Life is beauty, admire it.

Life is a dream, realize it.

Life is a challenge, meet it.

Life is a duty, complete it.

Life is a game, play it.

Life is a promise, fulfill it.

Life is sorrow, overcome it.

Life is a song, sing it.

Life is a struggle, accept it.

Life is a tragedy, confront it.

Life is an adventure, dare it.

Life is luck, make it.

Life is too precious, do not destroy it.

Life is life, fight for it.”

~Mother Teresa, founder of the Missionaries of Charity

 

In Your Words: If you were to focus on one line in this quote, which one would it be? “Life is a promise, fulfill it” is the sentence that caught my eye. It challenges me to stay committed to life … to what I believe in … to what God calls me to … to the promises I’ve made.
