Most Spring Breaks the kids and I go to Victoria. We have a wonderful time, swimming in the hotel pool, going to museums, walking along the beach, eating at Spaghetti Factory etc. It's just our time to unwind and refocus again. I love the ferry rides, the scenery and ocean always make me feel peaceful and thoughtful on things of life. One of our trips to Victoria we went to the Wax Museum. One of the displays was Mother Teresa. Beside her they had a poem she had written. I have to admit when I read it I had a tear in my eye.... how true this is.....I try often to remember it and thought I would share it with you today.
