Coming from a family of undertakers, 'The Secret to Superhuman Strength' is a journey through struggle to acceptance of one's own human nature and mortality. Most of the book covers struggle. Struggling to understand what she is struggling with and how to give it up. A lot of learning to unlearn. A lot of following Allison’s own interests, studying her heroes, their journeys, Allison’s journey, giving up the struggle against aches, pains, human frailty, real and imagined and finally just enjoying what life you have.
I don’t think I’m giving anything away here. Learning to unlearn what we have learned is a common practice in the colonial world.
Would have liked more time, space, and panels on the concluding desirable outcome and more enjoyment of life.
Happy for Allison and her loved ones.
