Nel n. 5 del giornalino "Insieme" (anno 1979, pag. 7) i BRAVI RAGAZZI collaboratori hanno pubblicato The following article with the title: MOTHER TERESA OF CALCUTTA
Nobel Peace
are assigned each year to personalities of awards worldwide on various fields of technology and science as a sign of human advancement. In the past
other personalities such as Martin Luther King, Pope John XXIII, and others have been selected and awarded this highest honor.
This year the focus of major turned to the humble. They guessed right by choosing Mother Teresa of Calcutta. Humble nun who has spent around a grand if peacemaking among people, bound in brotherhood through suffering and help the needy.
Sometimes we have seen on TV questa suora, grande, perchè si è saputa fare piccola fra i più bisognosi e abbiamo sentito la sua voce sicura, senza tanta retorica, ma una voce chiara, semplice.
Certamente ha ispirato in tutti un alto sentimento di affettuosità e di simpatia, curva sotto il suo "sari" bianco, con la testa bassa, coi sandali semplici e forse bucati, essa ha parlato al mondo intero portando il suo messaggio della fraternità e della collaborazione fra gli uomini.
Nata 69 anni fa a Scopiye in Iugoslavia, dedicò la sua vita al servizio dei poveri di Calcutta.
Il suo esempio spronò a seguire la sua vita ed in breve tempo ha fondato una Congregazione che si è dedicata completamente, in tutte le parti del mondo, al servizio of the poorest and the neediest.
of his life he has given to God and their brothers, embodying the commandment of the Lord, his house became the home of the poor, those poor who are forgotten by all, the people who are on the edge of driveways the indispensable.
She herself writes in his diary: "I walked non-stop until she could not refrain ...... my house is the house of the poor: not poor, but of those among the poor are the poorest.
Of those to which people are not coming because they are afraid of contagion ...... those who do not eat more, falling in the streets, those who do not cry ... most of the untouchables. "
Mother Teresa Calcutta has dedicated his life in the joy of giving to others and soon we will see on television withdraw the highest award of the Nobel Prize for Peace, with her white sari smoking among so many and so many double-breasted dark, their faces marked use and abuse of power, her humble sister, who puts all trust in God alone .-

these good guys have believed with conviction in the principles moral and ethical preached by the Catholic Church.
But how, in practical life, were able to imitate the example of Mother Teresa which were able to clearly describe the virtues?.
Many of them have become good professionals. More skilled craftsmen or traders or civil servants, or at least good and honest workers.
Many became good parents. Others have not been able to prove this joy. Someone
disappointed the expectations of parents who had hoped for a different result.
But how many of them in the daily conduct and performance of their duties, they applied those values \u200b\u200bin which young, have believed?.
Obviously, the choices that affect their private lives do not affect the social life of the community to the extent not affect public interest.
But, at least five of them have held an elective office in this country.
In this role, have certainly helped to take action involving the vital interests of the entire local community.
Thus the question arises:
- were inspired by the moral and ethical principles acquired in the parish?.
- They moved into their measures (collegiate or individual) moral principles?.
- They can show their faces marked "OUT OF POWER" as the many personalities present at the delivery of the Nobel Prize, in "double-breasted dinner jacket and dark"?.
- or, conversely, must present their faces marked "abuse of power"?.
are questions to which - in its capacity as responsible citizens - we have the right and duty to respond with clarity and conviction, if we want to make a useful contribution to moral growth, civic and economic of our country .-
