Our Humanity Spiritual Thought

Poverty is not remedied by money though it helps the immediate need.

Mother Teresa said being unloved was the greatest poverty.

But I think in the core of our being, we accept a belief.

Poverty is the belief that there are no options,

that we do not have a right to choose something different.

Perhaps being able to choose is one of the greatest gifts of freedom

and perhaps love is the joy to live it.

But your heart, that gives me your story. I hear your story when you speak, how you move, your choices. But you also listen this way. That is our humanity.
