The name of Mother Teresa brings to one's mind a small, thin woman, clad in a white sari, offering love and compassion to one and all, especially the very poor. A winner of the Nobel Peace Prize and 'Order of Merit' presented by Queen Elizabeth, Mother Teresa humbly carried on her selfless work with devotion. Mother Teresa, the enlightening humanity was born on August 26, 1920. Skopje of Macedonia was her birthplace. The Nobel winner lady's father was an Albanian builder who had two daughters and one son. Mother Teresa was the youngest of them and was named Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu. At the age of 12, she heard a voice from within her that urged her to spread the love of Christ. having decided to become a missionary, she left her home at the age of 18. Then she joined an Irish community of nuns called the Sisters of Loreto, which had missions in India. On May 24, 1931, she took her initial vows as a nun. From 1931 to 1948, Mother Teresa taught at St. Mary's High School in the then Calcutta. However the prevailing poverty in Calcutta had a deep impact on Mother Teresa's mind, and in 1948 she received permission from her superiors to leave the convent and devote herself to work among the poorest of the poor in the slums of Kolkata. Her historical home 'Nirmal Hriday' was founded in 1952. One year later she started an orphanage. Beginning her work with nothing but a strong desire to serve the poor and the needy she created an enormously successful religious order, setting up institutions for the helpless, the handicapped, the orphans and above all, leprosy-inflicted victims. This remarkable lady fought against rude behaviour and prejudices to help distressed people. This glowing lady got the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 and passed away on September 5, 1997. Mother Teresa remained one of the most respected people in the world. She is lovingly called a 'Saint', for truly, only a saint could do what she had done.
