This book is available in print edition
It sometimes appears that each of us is on a collision course with our own tragedy and nothing that we experience, see, or hear that might alert us of danger seems to register as being applicable to us. We can hear warnings a thousand times and have it shouted in our faces, but for some reason we can’t apply situations to our own lives until we have lived the very same thing with equally disastrous results that we had seen and clucked our tongues at many times before.
And I am no different. And you are no different.
Even if you have a full, rich, rewarding life, there still may be a part of you that is missing. A warning issued in the 1960s is not being heeded even today as more and more of us lose a very important part of ourselves into the roles we play in other people’s lives. In this book, Danna uses her own 35 years’ experience to give you the method by which you can track your own dreams and wishes and be able to enjoy all the life you were meant to have – to find yourself even if you didn’t know you were missing.

About The Author
Introduction
It’s very interesting to me (and a little creepy) that the older I become the more I have this urge to help younger people. Is that just a human trait? I don’t know. It’s kind of funny and very unlike me in a way. On that subject, I ran across an old poem not long ago that, at first reading, seemed embarrassingly corny to me. But, for some reason I was drawn to it and, on reading it again and again, I began to feel something of what the poet might have been feeling when he wrote the piece. I’ve since become accustomed to the feeling and now it’s not at all corny to me, but in fact, carries the sentiment that I’ve grown to understand during the recent years. I include it here:
An old man traveling a lonely highway
Came at the evening, cold and gray
To a chasm deep and wide.
The old man crossed in the twilight dim
For the sullen stream had no fears for him,
But he turned when he reached the other side
And builded a bridge to span the tide.
Old man!
cried a fellow pilgrim near,
"You’re wasting your strength in building here.
Your journey will end with the ending day
And you will never again pass this way.
You’ve crossed the chasm deep and wide,
Why build you a bridge at even-tide?"
And the builder raised his old gray head
Good friend, on the path I have come
he said,
"There follows after me today
A youth whose feet must pass this way.
This stream which has been as naught to me
To that fair-haired one may a pitfall be.
He too must cross in the twilight dim.
Good friend, I’m building this bridge for him."
Poet unknown
I wrote this book to you and for you because I have so many things to tell you. I want to help ease your way through life and enable you to experience all the joy life has to offer – without much of the baggage and heartache you might encounter otherwise. I want to tell you about my journey of discovery by pointing out how the two generations before me (my grandmothers and my mother) were entangled in the slow-moving process of losing self and were totally unaware of it. I want to warn you that, even when I saw their predicament in retrospect, I was seemingly unable to stop myself from following their lead.
My intentions are to build a bridge for you so you don’t have to wait as I did until you are in your 50s before you find yourself.
Chapter 1
Betty Friedan Wrote a Book
A remarkably talented researcher and writer, Betty Friedan, published a book in 1974 with the intentions of providing a guide to assist the American woman to find her true self. Entitled The Feminine Mystique, it identified the problem of ‘nervous breakdowns’ women began having in the 1960s. Her book was meant as a guide to women. It documented not only what she had learned from her many years in journalism at the most popular women’s magazines of the time, but also what she had witnessed happen to women (housewives specifically) which was the market she should have
