“This I Believe” honors mothers

Posted on the 09 May, 2010 at 12:01 am Written by Nancy in Blog, Favorites

It’s Mother’s Day.  “This I Believe” is featuring essays about mothers today. I just read one about how a girl should know her mother by a women who lost hers young.  Perhaps you heard authors read their “This I Believe” essays on National Public Radio.  The radio series ended but the program continues online.

Why not write an essay of our own today, or any other day for that matter.  As Edward R. Murrow said when he introduced the original radio series in the 1950s, “Never has the need for personal philosophies of this kind been so urgent.” You can keep it for your family or submit it for publication online. You can find essay-writing guidelines and instructions for submitting at http://thisibelieve.org/guidelines/

Last year’s Mother’s Day post.
