World Hijab Day

Sharing the lifelong path

By Marie (Canada)

I participated in World Hijab Day today because I am a firm believer in the right for each and every woman to express herself, regardless of what faith background she is or is not from, without condemnation. I am a Mennonite (Christian), and am so blessed to have been exposed to many different faith backgrounds over the course of my life. I was blessed with the chance to work in a refugee resettlement program for a little while and worked alongside many amazing Muslim men and women. I will never forget their dedication and their compassion for other people.  It made a huge impact on my life and continues to inspire me towards becoming a better person.

We are all walking along this path, so we may as well hold hands and try to figure it out together. 🙂
