Journey to the Real

Every life is a journey, and each life is unique. We all have a story to tell, and each one contains joy and sorrow. Not all of us will write about them, but each of us has unique experiences worth sharing. Some have a clear sense of direction from early in their lives. Others begin in confusion, not knowing where to go. What follows is the story of how I came to Theosophy. Throughout the journey, which is filled with remarkable experiences and encounters with amazing people, there are pivotal moments which changed me forever. I hope that by telling this story, and reflecting on those moments, you might reflect on your own journey and perhaps gain some insights that will help when it comes to living a more meaningful and fulfilling life. Ed Abdill's charm, wit, and wisdom shine forth beautifully in this memoir. People who know Ed will recognize him fondly; people who do not will have a glimpse of a delightful yet profound man. -- Richard Smoley, editor of Quest: Journal of the Theosophical Society in America
