When you love something like reading -- or drawing or music or nature -- it surrounds you with a sense of connection to something great. If you are lucky enough to know this, then your search for meaning involves whatever that Something is. It's an alchemical blend of affinity and focus that takes us to a place within that feels as close as we ever get to "home." It's like pulling into our own train station after a long trip -- joy, relief, a pleasant exhaustion.
-- Anne Lamott, Stitches, p. 22-23
