Life's Judgement

At the end of life
we will not be judged by
how many diplomas we have received,
how much money we have made,
how many great things we have done.
We will be judged by
I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat.
I was naked, and you clothed me.
I was homeless, and you took me in.
Hungry not only for bread,
but hungry for love.
Naked not only for clothing,
but naked for human dignity and respect.
Homeless not only for want of a home of bricks,
but homeless because of rejection.
Therefore boldly love, respect and accept.

~ Mother Teresa
