  1. Yes.In a self-serving way.

    If brains were dynamite,Diana could not have blown her nose!


  2. No way she had a privileged life.......

    Mother Teresa was A far better person in my eyes than Princess Di Ever was.

    They Died only days apart I think The World was so caught up with the whole Princess Di thing and her death that no one even cared about Mother Teresa.

    The previous summer Princess Di was asked to travel to Ireland on a peace trip there, but later refused, instead ended up on a luxury ship in the Mediterranean cavorting with Dodi Al fad.........

    Mother Teresa, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, died on September 5, 1997, in her convent in India. She was 87. Born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu in 1910 in Skopje, Yugoslavia, she joined the Sisters of Loreto in 1928. She took the name "Teresa" after St. Teresa of Lisieux, patroness of the Missionaries.

    Mother Teresa gained worldwide acclaim with her tireless efforts on behalf of world peace. Her work brought her numerous humanitarian awards, including : the Pope John XXIII Peace Prize and the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979. In receiving this award, Mother Teresa revolutionized the award ceremony. She insisted on a departure from the ceremonial banquet and asked that the funds, $6,000 be donated to the poor in Calcutta. This money would permit her to feed hundreds for a year. She is stated to have said that earthly rewards were important only if they helped her help the world’s needy.

    Mother Teresa stood for so much, nation wide, as she toured the world abroad . 100 countrys in a year in her eightys as sick as a dog in attempts to save & help the poor in Calcutta, for those who don't know.

  3. The late Diana, Princess of Wales was a unique royal; by engaging in her charity work on a deeply personal level she became a real people’s princess. People from around the world could identify with her. In particular they appreciated her heart centred approach to life. She was not just appreciated in her home country the UK, but around the world. She captured the heart of America and received much support and encouragement even from American newspapers.

    Her biggest achievement was by becoming the most famous woman in the world and raising awareness of several social issues including AIDS, poverty, drug problems and homelessness. Diana is also credited with promoting British fashion and the United Kingdom throughout the world. Diana's interest in supporting and helping young people led to the establishment of the Diana Memorial Award, awarded to youths who have demonstrated the unselfish devotion and commitment to causes advocated by the Princess.

    Diana shook up the British monarchy and speeded its modernization. She helped to tear down prejudices about AIDS. She raised awareness of eating disorders. She coalesced opposition to land mines. These are pretty hefty achievements for a woman of little education who mocked herself for being "thick as a plank."

  4. no ifs and buts

    YES

  5. She held her marriage together for as long as she could, knowing full well the man she loved was sleeping with someone else.  She did what she could to make sure her boys had a normal life in spite of the liar she was married to.  She's a hero because she put others first.
