I originally saw this quote on a friend of mine's skype profile so then i googled it and found out that it is a quote from Albert Einstein.
I Like it because it is so true..
Those who spend their life in the service of others find themselves to be truly happy. They dont do it for money or fame they just do it.
This actually inspires me to want to do more for others and less for myself (anyone who knows me please hold me to that... I will let you know how this goes.
At my Church we have two amazing and inspiring youth workers, Richard and Kelly Sealy. They are a married couple who have 3 children and have given up teaching jobs in the USA to come to New Zealand and work with the youth of Saint Thomas More Parish in Mount Maunganui.
They are not rich and thy lead a fairly simple life which generally revolves around the youth of our parish which, at times, can be very demanding. Despite all this they still put so much love into all that they do that it is truly inspirational. Their reward is not financial (as they are not paid for their service) but I truly believe that one day that they will be rewarded for sharing their faith with such a passion
One day I would like to put my life on hold for the love of others...
