From back cover:
The hardest thing for you and me to swallow is that we're the ones responsible for our charts, especially if they seem really rotten. We may wonder, Why did I write one thing and want another? Well, some of us recall a past time when we were happier, or we remember the Other Side where things are perfect. This leaks through and makes us homesick.
I really thought tht I just wanted to have chidren, stay home, and have a man take care of me. Things didn't turn out exactly as I planned, but then would I have been really happy? Probably not. Would I have liked to have given my children more time? Yes, but the time I gave them was quality. Did my dream of being taken care of come true? No, I always supported everyone, even my husbands. Yes do I reget that? No. As I look back, I remember what my ex-boyfriend one told me: "The world called." The need to support has also given me the impetus and will to continue.
With much gut-wrenching work, I've make baby steps to find what Sylvia wants. Yes, I have to live by my chart, but I also try to be good to me in the process. I won't say that I've been thrilled with my fate, but I did have choices (not so much externally, but internally), and so do you.
