Where do I draw strength? he asked. First, I replied, Fold your arms across your chest and hug (love) yourself. Are you done? Good, now let's move on. In no particular order: take inventory of yourself and your situation, and own it. Pick up the pieces. Sooner rather than later. There's a world out there waiting for you. Yes, you. You're in demand. You'll discover new people, relationships, perspectives, and cultures. You'll find that new places and people are pure entertainment and enlightenment. Laugh with and not at them. It's free. And that's something when you mistakenly believe you have nothing. Now, explore. When you get bored, explore some more. Incrementally, things will fall into place. Trust me, nephew. I've been there, done that. You can do that too. Love you, Now, stop hugging yourself. It's creepy. For readers of this book, his story is also yours. We all experience moments of feeling lost, but exploration offers solace and strength.

These journeys are about finding purpose, defining our role, and understanding our place in life. Ultimately, they're about recognizing ourselves in others....
