Who am I? What am I? Who and What am I supposed to be? Why am I? And How do I get the Who, the What, and the Why to flow together, or to flow at all? The answers to these questions cut to the core and essence of what it means to be a whole, complete and fully functioning member of the human race. They draw us to a place of inner alignment, harmony, and personal contentment. These questions, and their answers, are the reason this book exists. People thrive when they have a sense of purpose, and they wither and fade when they do not. Whether one is a person of faith or not, rich or poor, educated or uneducated, young or old, no matter what their ethnic background or race, male and female, whatever their personality type, we all desperately need a sense of purpose, a "life mission." Human beings are wired this way. When we discover why we were born, our personal "life mission," we flourish. But when we do not discover this, we wither away. If we do not discover our "why" we quickly say, "Good-bye." This book will seek to answer these questions, and many more. Getting Where You Need To Go is all about your personal "life mission" your "L.I.F.E.F.I.T.." We will take an in-depth look at the concept of Learning and Living Our "L.I.F.E.F.I.T."; your unique combination of passions, interests, gifts, personality, talents, abilities, marketable skills, education, experiences, training, people skills, calling, networking, relationships, and opportunities that is your personal Sweet Spot. This is your personal place of harmony, abundance, potential, and manifestation. It is that place where everything seems to fall into place. Here you attract all you need and long for. This is our "L.I.F.E.F.I.T." our unique and distinctive shape. Join with us on this journey of self-discovery and living a life that counts, as we seek to Get Where We Need To Go through Learning and Living Our "L.I.F.E.F.I.T."

More than a quarter of a million LGBTQ-identified migrants in the United States lack documentation and constantly risk detention and deportation. LGBTQ migrants around the world endure similarly precarious situations. Eithne Luibheid's and Karma R. Chavez's edited collection provides a first-of-its-kind look at LGBTQ migrants and communities. The academics, activists, and artists in the volume center illegalization, detention, and deportation in national and transnational contexts, and examine how migrants and allies negotiate, resist, refuse, and critique these processes. The works contribute to the fields of gender and sexuality studies, critical race and ethnic studies, borders and migration studies, and decolonial studies. Bridging voices and works from inside and outside of the academy, and international in scope, Queer and Trans Migrations illuminates new perspectives in the field of queer and trans migration studies. Contributors: Andrew J. Brown, Julio Capo, Jr., Anna Carastathis, Jack Caraves, Karma R. Chavez, Ryan Conrad, Elif, Katherine Fobear, Monisha Das Gupta, Jamila Hammami, Edward Ou Jin Lee, Leece Lee-Oliver, Eithne Luibheid, Hana Masri, Yasmin Nair, Bamby Salcedo, Fadi Saleh, Rafael Ramirez Solorzano, Jose Guadalupe Herrera Soto, Myrto Tsilimpounidi, Suyapa Portillo Villeda, Sasha Wijeyeratne, Ruben Zecena
