CalidaSong Oracle Readings

In the winter of 1892, a worker in Laramie, Wyoming found a four-year-old girl frozen in a train car. A note on her coat read, “Her name is Josephine. I can’t feed her. Please be kinder than I could be.” While others wanted to send her away, a kind Chinese laundress named Martha Chen said softly, “She stays with me.”

People gossiped about a Chinese woman raising a white child, but Martha ignored them. She taught Josephine to read, to work hard, and to be proud. Josephine grew up between two worlds, learning that family isn’t about blood—it’s about love and kindness.

Years later, when disease struck the town, Josephine saved many lives and became one of Wyoming’s first women doctors. She said, “The woman who found me gave me life. The woman who raised me gave me purpose.” The boxcar that almost took her life stayed as a reminder that even the coldest beginnings can lead to the warmest hearts.
