About this ebook
What things, people, or places in your life provide sustenance for you? Do those things sustain body, but not soul? Author Mary Anne Smrz finds spiritual and physical sustenance have a common thread. Paddling among reeds and wild rice she finds the connection between two distinct elements of nature. In this story she shares insights about the importance of sustenance.
