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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom \u003ci\u003eCreek Music\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBeside 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.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eBreaking points are gateways, and they often arrive unbidden.
