There is a theory in quantum physics which suggests that the only reason we can't Walk on Water is because we believe that we can't; that it is belief alone which shapes our lives. We are the creators of our own reality, and can, therefore, create whatever life we choose, if we but dare.
In the fall of 2004, following an urge she couldn't explain but which had nagged at her persistently for years, Jude Messineo dared. Choosing to trust her intuition over the well-intentioned objections of family and friends, she quit a high-paying management job, sold her house, gave away all of her possessions, and drove away from Chicago, her home for all of her 46 years. Her destination was Gulf Shores, Alabama, for what she thought would be a quiet and introspective three month sabbatical as she decided what to do next with her life.
Scarcely a week into her carefully planned retreat Hurricane Ivan roared into Gulf Shores, leaving her homeless for the next three months and forcing her to "go to Plan B, whatever that might be." What followed was an extraordinary journey, initially begun in fear and panic as well-laid plans unraveled. But as a series of events pull her from one end of the country to the other, she gradually learns to let go of the need to control every moment of her life and trust the universe to lead her to where she needs to be.
Walk on Water is the account of the slow and deliberate unraveling of a conventional life. Written in journal form, it will speak to anyone in transition, anyone longing to break free of what is considered a "normal" life in order to follow a dream.
