On a seasonably warm day in April, author Sandra C. Johnston
walked into Daisy's Treasure Trove in White Rock, British Columbia.
At the time, Johnston faced a crossroads in her life, and that
visit to Daisy's thrift store changed her life's outlook. In this
memoir, she narrates the story of how she met ninety-one-year-old
Daisy Walls, the lessons she learned, and how the relationship
affected her.
"A Journey with Daisy" not only describes Johnston's experiences
volunteering in the store-where every day was a rich experience
with both the customers and employees-but also demonstrates the
impact Daisy had as an elder mentor as she modeled kindness,
tenacity, compassion, and courage.
A combination of prose, poetry, and reflection, "A Journey with
Daisy" narrates a journey of self-discovery and spiritual and
personal growth. It encourages you to live passionately, gives you
the breath to speak what you know, delivers nourishing soul food,
and inspires you with the courage to face what you see without
looking away from it.
