Have you ever felt a compulsion to go somewhere but you're not sure why it is calling you? Have you ever known there was another level to your life but you weren't sure what it was? That's the journey Regina Strongheart undertook in 1996 when she visited the Black Hills in South Dakota. Then, after her nearly month long tenting adventure, she had found a new map for her life.
The subtle conflict is one we all face; How do we live our best life and how can we overcome the difficulties to get there? The author's triumph was a struggle and, in some ways, is ongoing, but her determination and dedication to herself and all the people she helps with her healing gifts, make for a universal story. By the time the epilogue rolls around, the reader will be clapping not only for her, but themselves, too, as they absorb her determination and realize everyone can carve out the life they deserve.
In the pages of this beautifully written memoir, the author shares her extraordinary personal and spiritual odyssey with courage, candor, and humor. She has intricately interwoven the story of her life with the story of her solitary journey guided by her willingness to open her mind and being to spiritual forces. This journey within a journey became a quest to make meaning of her past, learn from her present, and find pathways to her future. This is a book to be read time and time again. Many of the chapters can stand alone and may be sampled for the pure enjoyment of experiencing fine stories told by a deft storyteller with an enduring and important saga to be shared.
