Lesson One

 Beauty is rarely straight forward, and sometimes your eyes will deceive you.

Though I should imagine that everyone knows the legend that Mother Teresa left behind, you may not know the story that came before her beautiful legacy. The letters from her dark times were aired in Time magazine, along with this image.
     
        The beauty of this image is known even to those who may not know her face. Though her wrinkles and stark appearance bemoan a poor and unembellished woman who has seen many years, that is the farthest from the truth. This, the Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta, found her name from the pure love that she radiated. Her soft smile, deeply caring eyes, and every line on her face a physical memory of a life she touched, none of these can match the beautiful things she accomplished.
