Being Called 'Mama' for the First Time at 74

4/29/2023

 
Linda Hay writes in this Compassion Story: "When Jim Levinson asked for a story about compassion and opening my home to young women from Afghanistan, I smiled ... because these past few months have transformed my own life. I could never have imagined that these young women would be calling me “Mama” and presenting me with balloons and flowers on Mother’s Day. And yet that is what came to pass. “Taking the chance” and making that commitment turned out to be very much the right thing both for my Afghan “daughters” and for me." Read the whole story.
