Higher Archy (or is that anarchy lol) gains higher face value.
Princess Diana was that, A beloved Princess. If she had lived to the age that Mother Teresa had lived who knows what she could of accomplished.
quote:
In the late 1980s, Diana began increasingly to involve herself in charity work, taking on a number of causes including such sensitive issues as HIV/AIDS, domestic abuse, and drug addiction. She traveled thousands of miles a year in support of her favorite causes and raising funds, often taking along her beloved sons—especially William, who many expect will become king someday—to hospitals and homeless shelters so that they would understand the world outside the palace walls.
1997
In the early morning of August 31, 1997, after leaving the Ritz in Paris, Diana and Fayed were involved in a fatal car accident. Though Diana was still alive when doctors reached the scene, their frantic work could not save her; a few hours later, she was pronounced dead of cardiac arrest at the age of 37.She was burried on Sept 6th.
Mothre Theresa was deemed a saint and Im sure as history progresses it will be
Mother Theresa who will be worshiped for Her deeds done long after Englands
Princess is long forgot. JMO Both were Woman to be admired for Their lifes living.
quote:
On October 7, 1950, Mother Teresa received permission from the Holy See to start her own order, "The Missionaries of Charity", whose primary task was to love and care for those persons nobody was prepared to look after. In 1965 the Society became an International Religious Family by a decree of Pope Paul VI and she was concidered a living saint.
The Society of Missionaries has spread all over the world, including the former Soviet Union and Eastern European countries. They provide effective help to the poorest of the poor in a number of countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and they undertake relief work in the wake of natural catastrophes such as floods, epidemics, and famine, and for refugees. The order also has houses in North America, Europe and Australia, where they take care of the shut-ins, alcoholics, homeless, and AIDS sufferers
Mother Teresa's work has been recognised and acclaimed throughout the world and she has received a number of awards and distinctions, including the Pope John XXIII Peace Prize (1971) and the Nehru Prize for her promotion of international peace and understanding (1972). She also received the Balzan Prize (1979) and the Templeton and Magsaysay awards she was called the saint of the gutters.
Mother Teresa died on September 5, 1997 at (age 87)
