UNDATED -- Time Magazine takes a fascinating look into the unknown side of one of the most admired women in the world: Mother Teresa.

It’s been nearly 10 years since her death and Time has published a cover story describing Teresa’s “secret life,” which is a life full of good works in public and in private, marked by personal pain.

In the report, it has emerged that Teresa was so doubtful of her own faith that she feared being labeled a hypocrite, according to the report.

In a new book that compiles letters she wrote to friends, superiors and confessors, her doubts are obvious.
