on hope.

We win some, we lose some.
Today, we won.

Today I learned that Issa, the man on the far left, is coming to America. After years of applying, he was finally granted permission. Although his struggles will not end when he arrives in the states, it is a huge step in the right direction. I could not be happier for him.

I have hope that people will be kind, welcoming and gentle with him. I also have hope that as he is granted permission to leave Malta, the system is slowly but surely allowing these determined people to seek peace. All they want is a place to call home. I wish him safe travels.
Love, Audrey
