Grow where you're planted.

These were words spoken by Mother Teresa to a philanthropist with a restless heart taken from Archbishop Jose Gomez's Baccalaureate Address at USC

The entire transcript can be found here. Here's an excerpt:

You are in this world for a reason! God has a plan for each one of your lives. He has something that he wants you to do. Wherever find yourself "planted," wherever you find yourself in this life, you must seek God's will for you.
Wherever you find yourself, remember: God loves each one of you very dearly -- as if there were no one else in the whole wide world but you.
Sometimes I think this is the hardest thing for people to believe in -- God's personal love for us. We think that this world is so big, that the universe is so vast -- how can God possibly care about every one?
But he does, my friends! God cares for you very deeply.
