Mother Teresa points to a profound spiritual truth about work and service. The "work" itself—helping the poor, caring for the sick—is difficult and often thankless. Many people might do it out of a sense of duty or obligation.

The true "miracle" is when this work is done with genuine joy and love. To find happiness in giving, in serving, in contributing to the well-being of others is a transcendent state. It transforms labor from a burden into a source of fulfillment and connection. This joy is the fuel that makes sustained service possible.

This quote is an inspiration to find the love in what we do. It challenges us to connect our actions to a deeper purpose, so that our work becomes not just a task, but an expression of our values and a source of authentic joy.
