Mother Teresa, what an amazing woman who gave of her time to humanity. Her SELFLESS work has been recognised and praised throughout the world. Mother Teresa knew her calling from as young as 12 years. After taking her vows years later, she realised that the poverty and suffering of the Calcutta people was an issue that she could not over-look. Pennyless, Mother Teresa, left her convent and started an outdoor school for the underprivelaged children of the slum areas. Mother Teresa quickly gained the financial support and help of volunteers she so desperately needed. She eventually moved on to start her own charity, The Missionaries of charity, which became a global charity and is still in existance today.
Nobel Peace Prize winner, Mother Teresa is the inpiration for todays’s eSquared comment of the day:
“Honesty and transparency make you vulnerable. Be honest and transparent anyway.“

Their ravenous hunger knows no bounds and can engulf an entire city within seconds, if their wicked minds feel the urge, luckily all seagulls are controlled by the UN and there have been no more casualties since the dreaded school kid massacre of 82′. Seeing the helpless kelp in such deep and sticky trouble, I did what any semi-eco friendly spray can would do….i Dissolved the ozone layer….oh wait that was later…Nay, I helped the kelp with a formidable spinning round house kick, but the gulls were quick and I couldnt destroy them all….not with only two feet and a packet of depleted uranium bubblegum. It was in this moment, were the gulls had me with my back against the wall and in certain peril of getting my eyes munched out, that the kelp cried out and gave of itself one of its most treasured weapons…..The Seagull-Smacker2000 (XP Edition)
