We sat in the airport till Mother Teresa


came in. I felt hot6 tired and a bit nervous.
I wanted to kiss her when I met hepbut she
didn't let me. She told me about her work in
Ethiopia. She and her sisters took care of
sick people and homelesschildren. I wanted
to help them and I told her about my music.
'I'11give a concert in lndia
Then I said6
for you.'
'No. God will give us what we need.' She
turned to one of the important people
nearby.
'I sarv two big old palaces in the city6' she
'Will you give me them for mY
said.
h o m e l e s sc h i l d r e n ? '
'I'm not sure about palaces6 but we can
find you a house.'
'TWo houses6'said Mother Teresa.
'TWo houses.'
I understood that Mother Teresa could
ask for any-thing (,) and she would get it.
She was al1goodness. She wanted nothing
for herself.Then she took my hand and said6
'l can do something you can't do6 and
5'ou
can do something I can't do6 but rr'e both
have to do it.'
