But I kept reminding myself my suitcase was too heavy already. Now that I'm home, and you've tantalized me with that paragraph, I know I have to buy it.

I borrowed it from the library, but am now thinking I must own it to go back over it time and time again. It left me uplifted and feeling like the world was bursting with possibility.

I've talked about this with my 80 year old Grandma and she still has a little of each in her so I think for the women of my family it must be a lifelong process. Thanks for the wonderful words.

I love reading it again here. I wonder if EG knew how profound this sentiment was when she wrote it or if it just rolled out of her without much effort? Either way, my world will never be the same. i love you, p This is my favorite quote from this book as well, and I’ve emailed it to so many people. I love reading it again here.
