the best you’ve got anyway.

Meaninglessness is a mouthful of a word, but it is much more than. It is a proper tag for an empty soul.

To the rich man Christ said, “Sell all you have.” To Nicodemus He said, “Be born again.” To the disciples He said, “Follow Me.” To each of these He was offering meaning in life.

Jesus, as He neared the end of His life on earth, had one worry that strangled His heart: the fear that when He was gone His disciples would be overwhelmed by a terrible loneliness.

Therefore, in the Upper Room He said, “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.” (John 15:12 RSV)

It is not how many friends we have, nor how many names we can drop, nor the length of our Christmas EMAIL list, but rather our relationship with the great family of humanity and our relationship with God.

Would you make life better for others and for yourself. Then follow and put into practice the thoughts of Mother Theresa. Wise woman that she was…here she gives suggestions on how to feel
closer to each and every member of human kind.

1 - Accept the fact that people are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered. Forgive them anyways.

2 - If you are kind and loving, some people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind and loving anyway.

3 - The good you do today, people may forget tomorrow. Do good anyway.

4 - Give the world the best you have and though it may never be enough for some, give the world
