...with writer David Van Biema that a parallel exists between Christ's final moments on the Cross and Teresa's final 50 years, during which she didn't feel the presence of God. In both cases, the acts of self-sacrifice and feelings of abandonment resulted in the most profound contributions to the welfare of human souls. Teresa's life of faith, dedication and commitment despite incredible spiritual trials should be an inspiration to all, regardless of religious inclination. Barbara Bailey, Rockledge...

Teresa gave the message but felt she did not receive it; she loved yet did not feel...
TIME: Many people outside Africa know Ethiopia primarily from television reports of the famine in 1984 and 1985. Meles: That was clearly part of our reality. We cannot run away from it. Ethiopia is in the midst of a profound transformation. Most analysts agree that our growth has been exceptionally pro-poor. The political transformation is still a work in progress.
