Literally Beautiful

As someone who loves the intricacies of language, I especially appreciate the elaborate literal translations of many English words into Mandarin Chinese. Today, while helping with a delivery of emergency supplies at a primary school, I learned how the word "philanthropist" translates: "a person of the world with a big heart."

As I saw happiness on the faces of the children here today, I couldn't help but think of the thousands of Mercy Corps supporters who made this delivery possible. It's truly a beautiful translation of caring into action.
