Wellspring Women’s Center is a non-profit organization. It's dining room is painted a rosy pink with peace-bringing paper cranes suspended from its ceiling. Though smiling faces are abundant, tears are shed here, too. This is a setting for the magic of radical acceptance. The women and children who frequent the drop-in breakfast center are referred to as guests, cherished and honored by the center volunteers and employees. They may be low-income, homeless or isolated, but, like everyone they seek love and acceptance.
