On her fiftieth birthday, realizing she is not content with her life, Beth Rutledge makes a decision that tests the strength of her marriage, confronts the strained relationship with her mother, and forces her to spend time with the one person she knows the leastβherself.
My name is Beth Rutledge. Today is my birthday. I am fifty- one years old. My mother will tell you I have been having a midlife crisis. My best friend will tell you I am courageous. My husband will tell you that, on my last birthday and for just a little while, I lost my mind.
I will tell you this: Sometimes you have to lose something in order to reclaim it. Sometimes you have to trust the love that holds the seams of your life together and stretch it to a new limit. Sometimes you just have to lose your mind⦠and follow your heart.
