Creek Music: What a Year in the Woods Taught Me about Seasons, Surrender & Joy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798845997593)

In this collection of 52 essays Nina Groop weaves a story of loss, redemption, and joy that she uncovered during weekly visits to a nearby creek. From the dissolution of her twenty-five-year marriage to the quest to find a new partner to the beauty found in everyday moments, Groop illuminates the way the natural world and our daily lives serve as a map to our own true north.

From Creek Music:
Beside the creek in the thick heat of this summer's day, I am reminded of the many breaking points in my life-the times when the gathering pressure became altogether too much. In retrospect those times felt like a crack in a dam finally giving way. On the surface this giving way looked like catastrophe, but really it was life rescuing me in a great rush.

Breaking points are gateways, and they often arrive unbidden. They look like death, but that's how this whole thing works: death to life and back again, an endless pattern of surrender and resurrection. What gateways have you passed through
