this book was very peaceful and had a sense of calmness. If Mother Teresa has ever affected you in any way, shape, or form throughout your life, I highly recommend this book. It's just filled with little passages from those that worked alongside her, and it also is filled with things that she, herself have said. It was a book that once I started reading it, I had a hard time putting it down. It's not a long book by any means, however from my perspective, it's a very powerful and meaningful book.
