In life, we are bound to our individual journeys. Each taking us somewhere different and unique. Each path strewn with challenges we must overcome. The answers we seek have been inside of us all along.
Andrew Forsthoefel’s Walking To Listen, is a literary masterpiece. Andrew’s true story documents his travels Walking from Philadelphia to California. Every word written is both honest and vulnerable. His thoughts and fears echoed my own and this coming of age story is worth the read.
Andrew studied up and lived by famous writers and poets, Whitman and Rilke. He let their words guide him on his walk but ultimately made the choices for himself. Be true to yourself. Learn what it is you need to continue and prosper on your journey.
