Kindness Echoing
Through Eternity

'Kind words can be short & easy to speak, but their echoes are endless.'
--the late Mother Theresa, who visited and spoke at John Carroll University during my student days. She later won the Nobel Prize for peace. She died in 1997.

Wow, you experienced a little piece of history.

That would have indeed been nice, Diane. Only I wasn't there! Probably too busy playing pick-up hoops or chasing girls (alas, unsuccessfully). She wasn't nearly as famous then as she subsequently became, but I also wasn't nearly as into following what was going on in the world as I am now. I was just a silly, mostly obtuse, college student at the time, I'm afraid.
