Letter to Mama

-
It's still heartwarming, the letters and stories we are getting from all walks of life as we celebrate the mother figures in our lives.

Hearty thanks to everyone sending in a letter, a story, a quote, and, a photo. It all matters because every mom and every story is worth celebrating.

Today's letter reminds us of the power of noticing - noticing the beauty, and scarifies our mothers make everyday.

Dear Mum,

I trust that the Lord has kept you well.
I am writing this letter as a token of thanks for who you are to me and for what you have done for me.

I am highly grateful for the values you have not only instilled in me but also for how you are very practical with them in your own-to-day living.



This is evident in the way you wake us up early every morning and have a family devotional before each one of us goes about their day.

Memories of you correcting us linger on and on in my mind. You first instruct with kindness before you apply " mutereeza—haha, -  which is the cane. 😂😂😂.

I can never forget the times you carried us on your back when our bodies were acting up. The vomit you mopped, the damp cloth you put on our bodies to help cool our temperature.

Oh Mama!!!!! You are literally everything to us., doctor , a chef, a lawyer, a teacher, a friend, a confidant, to mention but a few.

It is an honor for me to be yours.

Yours truly

Every action you take impacts the lives of others around you , The question is, Are you aware of your impact?   Refugees are very amazing people. Like you, they need love, respect, equal opportunities and dignity. It is not their desire to leave their home countries. They have just lost everything and all they want is starting a new chapter of their lives.  For many, it is never easy. We crown 2020 with a very inspirational Story from Divine Irakoze, a refugee from Burundi living in Malawi. When we heard her story, we imagined the tones of unheard refugee stories  from all over the continent that need to be told.  How would you describe yourself? My name is Divine Irakoze. I am twenty years old and a  refugee from Burundi living in Malawi. I am very passionate about refugee work. I am currently the founder and team leader of Dzaleka Youth in Action Organization How did you land in Malawi? I was born in a refugee camp in Tanzania. My parents later mov...

  💕- STAY MENTALLY HEALTHY- 💕 The Covid- 19 pandemic has been a daily talk for the past couple of months, and we could not let this period pass by without sharing lock down stories from people all over the world.  From us to you we say : " your story matters and at such a time when countless people seem hopeless, it has the ability to speak life to them.

I became so obsessed with reading everything about the virus, the number of confirm...
