"I choose the poverty of our poor people. But I am grateful to receive (the Nobel Prize) in the name of the hungry, the naked, the homeless, of the crippled, of the blind, of the lepers, of all those people who feel unwanted, unloved, uncared-for throughout society, people that have become a burden to the society and are shunned by everyone.” These were the words mother spoke when she accepted the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979.
Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu, who later become well known as Mother Teresa, was born on August 26th, 1910 (baptized on 27th August, 1910) in Skopje, Macedonia, Albania. Her father was a successful and well known contractor, her mother was a housewife. She was the youngest of three children.
Mother Teresa’s family was a devoted catholic family, they prayed every evening and went to church almost everyday. It was her family’s generosity, care for the poor and the less fortunate that made a great impact on young Teresa’s life. Teresa’s mother Drana, also took care of an alcoholic women in the neighborhood. She went to wash and feed her twice a day and she also took care of a widow with 6 children. When Drana could not go, Agnes went to do this charitable work. And when the widow died, the children were raised in the house as if they were the part of family.
Unfortunately, when Agnes was 9, her father died. It was 1919 and Drana had to raise her three children, Aga (1904 born), Lazar (1907 born) and Gonxha (1910 born) alone. To foresee in their needs she sew wedding dresses, made embroidery and worked hard. In spite of all this, she made time for the education of her children.
