"I alone cannot change the world..." - Mother Teresa
by Laura Reid June 5, 2019
An estimated 30-20 million people are enslaved globally and about 50% of these enslaved people live in India. Something needs to change. This is why The Skipping Stone is working to make an impact and decrease these numbers.
All products are not made directly by our women, yet the proceeds of the company helps us reach our goal of creating as many jobs as possible. Our Jubilee line products are all made by these women. They are seeking an escape from extreme poverty. They are broken. They have no hope. They have no freedom.
This is why we are fighting human trafficking with urgency and breaking down strongholds by empowering women and children by giving them hope and freedom. The captives will be set free and the broken are made beautiful.
The profits we make go directly to these women and children. We partner with nonprofits who seek to make an impact in long term measures. We look beyond the short term solutions that often only create more problems, and work towards freedom in the long term.
Mother Teresa said, “I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples”
What a powerful quote. This quote embodies the message and inspiration of The Skipping Stone. We aim to make an impact, to make ripples in the work that we do. To change the world, to change the lives of these women and children one ripple at a time. But just as Mother Teresa said, we alone cannot change the world. We need your help, your support and commitment. Cast stones with us across the water. Your purchases, your support directly impacts the women who have handmade your product. Join us in giving them freedom. Make a Ripple with The Skipping Stone.
Check out our products, we have Lifestyle Bags and Wallets, Handmade Journals, and an array of Jewelry.

Mother Teresa is documented as saying, “I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across waters to create many ripples.”
In my opinion, I think she meant something similar to “Sometimes our work feels small and insignificant, but a small ripple can gain momentum and build a current that is insurmountable.”
The ripples represent small efforts to change things in the world, and these little attempts can progress to a point of achievement.

There is no readily available evidence that Mother Teresa ever said this, so it may not be possible to say what Mother Teresa herself would have meant, if indeed she did say it. The author of this Quora question did some research and was told Mother Teresa never spoke the words attributed to her: The quote "I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples" is commonly attributed to Mother Tesera, but according to motherteresa.org, she never said this. So, where does this quote originate from?

Was Mother Theresa as good as she was said to be?
Mother Theresa was good. VERY GOOD. She was very good at equating suffering with godliness. And of all the money she was given, she never tried to alleviate the pain of the people in her care. She never went around Calcutta ensuring that the poor have proper vaccination.
Her ultimate goal was suffering and she was good at fetishizing it. And the MILLIONS pissed away with no lasting benefit to anyone makes me sick!

Was Mother Teresa a fraud?
Originally Answered: was Mother Teresa a fraud ?
There are many facts that have surfaced that reveal that while Mother Teresa was not exactly a fraud, she was not the saint that the world painted her to be.
Facts revealed that Mother Teresa refused to allow painkillers or antibiotics to her flock and to the needy and poor claiming that she could cure them by faith healing while the lady herself took western medicines for her own ailments without a seconds thought of demur.
Facts revealed that Mother Teresa spent less than 15% of the huge donations that were collected on the poor and the bulk of these donations went to the Catholic Church in Ro

What is the conclusion of this Mother Teresa quote, "there should be less talk; a preaching point is not a meeting point. What do you do then? Take a broom and clean someone's house. That says enough"?
This lovely quote emphasizes the importance of taking action as opposed to just talking about it. Words have their place but when the rubber meets the road it’s about what actually gets done. As Nike says it so well: Just do it. Don’t overthink lest there is analysis paralysis. Housecleaning is a good metaphor for the spiritual path as the inner journey is all about purification & uncluttering. She was a karma yogi & a blessing to the poorest of the poor. So if your house is in order the natural thing to do is to look around & help those around you who may be struggling in any way.
