What draws me to the book is the idea of a QUEST... that life is a QUEST for... many things...
For me, I experience and recognize the importance of wondering - "Is this it?" I want to honor the restless discomfort (and sometimes sheer panic) that accompanies that wondering. I believe that I simply have to verbalize that I wonder this and at times I have to take action to explore, to go on a quest... sometimes independently and sometimes with other people. Therefore, the reason that I wanted to read this book myself and share it with my mom and sister is because I need to be inspired by other women who share my need to explore and who most reliably support me to quest and will even come with me if I ask.

It is strange but true: I heard a voice say "Is this all there is?". I actually turned around to see who was there. (I think you've heard this story from me before.) From that day forward, without conscious effort, the 'right' books, teachers, coincidences started falling in my lap. In retrospect, that quiet moment when I heard the question, was the major turning point in my life.
