Your quote from Mother Teresa makes me think of the story about the man throwing starfish back in the sea. Someone points out that he can't save the lives of all the starfish. He points out he saved the life of the one he threw back.
I have a job working with at risk kids. Some times my co-workers (me too, to be totally honest) become discouraged that there are so many kids that need help and we can't save them all. I remind myself that if I've made a difference to one kid, I've made a difference.
