Book excerpt: There is not one person in this world that has not, at one time or another, searched for something that seemed unattainable. It may be something different for each of us, but we all search – for our own ‘prize’ – in our own way. Every human comes to question the direction of his or her life at some point. We either read the map wrong, question the map, or maybe we can’t even fi nd the map at all. Southernmost Point will give you strength and laughter for your journey, regardless of where you are. It is possible to continue even when you feel like you can’t. This humorous and insightful account of one person’s story to perform her own adoption search instills hope, laughter and tears. The journey IS the destination...and it is always worth it.
