Mother Terasa : An eye opener

When I was in my ninth standard, we had a chapter on mother Teresa in our oriya literature book. It was really heartening to read that article, and I would lie if I said I did not cry reading that chapter. In my young mind, it had left a long lasting impression and I wanted to be just like her. Time passed by and as I grew older, I have slowly forgotten all the promises I made to myself. Now I understand things a lot better and I have access to sources that can show me the truth rather than what printed media says. I had got airs about the reality behind mother Teresa few months back, but I quickly brushed it off thinking people are just jealous. But today I came across a book(that you can read online), which is very hard to dismiss. It is an eye opener on what we read in the newspaper or watch on television or in our text books is not always true! Facts are carefully concealed by our educators, government to show things in different color.

For those that are interested, here is the link to the book - you can read online.
