I thought I knew Mother Teresa.I read the article in Time Magazine when she was awarded the Noble Prize. There she was: a quiet, bent woman.And some idiot (in my opinion ) reporte was giving her grief because the sign on the Mother House, in big letters, said Mother Teresa's Sisters of Charity. Why didn't I take the time to challenge that doofus to work with Mother Teresa for just one week? After reading this book, I doubt he could have taken it. I know I couldn't.In Mother Teresa's world, nothing was done without permission. When she felt something had to be done, she had to ask PERMISSION. And since the men above her might be promoted or moved, well, it could be a long, drawn out process.This book tells where she drew her strength to last. It tells how she knew she had to do something, and it explains how being a woman in a man's world is not always a bad thing.Mother Teresa made the world change, not for her, but for the people who needed it most. She was unafraid of disease, of robbery and of the many people who stood above her both literally and figuratively. There were secrets she kept until her death.This book will tell you what they were.
