I started reading Mernie's memoir while in Woodstock, but it wasn't the right time for me to really get into it. After I returned home and shook my life up, I picked it back up and finished it at a quick pace. Her description of growing up and daredevil exploits through her first half of life had my attention captured. I could identify with her feelings and "jump before thinking" reactions to life events. I was happy to see things become clearer for her as she settles down. I want to reach a point of clarity in my life too. Her story gives me hope. I feel blessed to know her. I recommend reading her story for anyone who is a seeker.
