Columbus was wrong. The world is flat, its edges sharp and abrupt, or at least that is how it can feel when who we are is about to change. Everything we knew about ourselves, Everything we felt secure in the knowledge of fails to hold true. The jump we are about to take seems dangerous; the tethers seem weak. The first step can take our breath, but we leap anyway. ...Audrianne Hill This book gathers Hill's first year of experiences and reflections after leaving a beloved high school teaching career. Readers may identify with her issues, be inspired by Hill's broad outreach into the larger world....and help themselves to open doors to a more satisfying future.
