Mother Theresa tells a story about bringing a bowl of rice to a Hindu family, who had not had any food for a longtime. The first thing the mother did was put half of the rice into another bowl and take it to the Muslim family next door. Mother Theresa asked her how, or why she would do that. The woman responded, “They haven’t had any food either.”
