Forgiving Yourself

This week, we’re listening to Heleine Kaha.

Heleine came to the US - by herself - from Cameroon, in November of 2001.

The first time I spent time Heleine, we talked for three hours. I can only describe it as an intended intersection. We knew we were sisters and were meant to walk together. Our stories were meant to collide.

She honored me by telling parts of her story; telling me her life as a child and young woman; telling me her hurts and her dreams. She has struggled and fought and climbed and cried and despaired and waited patiently.
