This collection of essays, is so much more than a reflection of one woman’s journey. Yes, it’s an artistic array of story amidst experience, in the throngs of nature and alongside the audacity of ripening dreams. But it is a bird call, above all else, for the women who feel trapped in contentment. It is a shining star example of what’s possible when we allow love for ourselves and when we embrace a life of noticing. When we accept the constant and rare beauties of life that surround us. This book is hilarious adventure and artistic mundane and outrageous storytelling. Ultimately it is a portrait of the wild in us all! And it asks, every page, “More life?” and it begs us to answer with a resounding, surrendering, “Yes!”. Creating in the reader a desire for wonder, and tenacity and courage.
