In the second volume of her memoir, Margaret continues her fascinating exploration of her life experiences in her attempts to heal herself and find happiness. In this work, she shows her efforts to go beyond the limited thinking of her childhood years. Her search gives her an opportunity to investigate and feel a world outside the shelter of the children's home and convent. Her relationships with her siblings, mother, and stepfather become driving forces as she determines what path she is to follow. Travel with Margaret as she overcomes her fears and lets go of what she was taught and her beliefs of not being enough. Her enthralling journey is a powerful example of a determined woman who seeks peace with her past and creates her future.
