The St. Teresa I'm talking about is St. Teresa of Avila or St. Teresa of Jesus

Because of all she knew about Christ, she loved him just that much. Actually she was no different from a good mother with her child today. There is little a good mother wouldn't go thru by way of suffering for her child, RIGHT NOW!

Saint Teresa was born in Avila, Spain, March 28, 1515. She died in Alba, October 4, 1582. Her family origins have been traced to Toledo and Olmedo. Her father, Alonso de Cepeda, was a son of a Toledan merchant, Juan Sanchez de Toledo and Ines de Cepeda, originally from Tordesillas. Juan transferred his business to Avila, where he succeeded in having his children marry into families of the nobility. In 1505 Alonso married Catalina del Peso, who bore him two children and died in 1507. Two years later Alonso married the 15-year-old Beatriz de Ahumada of whom Teresa was born.
God Bless you

I don't know if she considered it suffering. She loved what she was doing. You do mean Mother Teresa, in India?

Teresa's parents gave her heart of love to help the others , but she used the name tag ( label ) of dumb Christianity

Unless you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior and have a relationship with Him, I'm afraid you'll never fully comprehend her reasons or anyone eles's reasons when they've chosen to suffer for Christ's sake.
A quote by Jim Eliot (a man killed by the Aucas as he and several others with him tried to reach the people with the gospel of Jesus Christ): "He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."

Anyone willing to suffer for their love of god is deluded. That would include her.
