Summer is a time of great change, a season when you may experience extremes as part of your inner life. The seeds you've planted will emerge and burst into bloom. But the beauty of what you are creating may be hindered by sudden storms or challenging conditions. The writings in this volume remind us that these opposites are a natural part of our internal summer experience. With humor, grace and extraordinary honesty, these writers describe the universal themes of women's lives: raising children and saying goodbye, facing illness, celebrating small moments of deep peace. Their writing reflects the rhythms and dichotomy of summer: When growth reaches its peak, we experience the full exhilaration and chaos that rapid growth can bring. As you read their work, journal and reflect on your own season of change as you explore the themes of joy, storms, mindfulness, resilience and beauty within you.
