“No man is poor who has had a godly mother” said Abraham Lincoln. I believe he had a godly mother. I can certainly acknowledge his statement. If not for my mother, I would not have become what I am today, a Franciscan Religious. She showed her love more by her deeds than by her words. Another word for Love is Mother. One of the Indian sayings goes this way: Since we couldn’t see God, God created Mothers. On this Mother’s Day I wish all the Mothers everything best and God’s blessings.”
