What we need is to love without getting tired.
How does a lamp burn? Through the continuous input of small drops of oil.
What are the drops of oil in our lamps?
They are the small things of daily life: faithfulness, punctuality, small words of kindness, a thought for others.
These are the true drops of love...
Help us to be faithful in small things, for it is in them that our strength lies.
(Mother Teresa)
