Mutant Message Down Under
by Marlo Morgan
During my two-month illness, my oldest sister, Nancy, sent
me Mutant Message Down Under by Marlo
Morgan. Morgan, a fifty-year-old
divorced mother with two adult children, is asked to work on a health care
project in Australia. Morgan was a
health care professional who believed in wellness related strategies to cure
patients. Morgan arrives in Australia
and begins her project. One day, she attends
an event where she has her future told by a fortune teller. She is told that
there is a journey in her future where she will meet her soul mate, which does
indeed come true. Morgan later goes on a
tour of the outback and is asked to immediately join the Aboriginal tribe she had
visited on a 90-day walk through the desert.
She feels compelled to do it. The
rest of the story captures Morgan’s journey of learning about respect of our
world/nature, how to control her fear and pain (walking across the desert with
no shoes), and how to connect to others through telepathy. Each chapter teaches a new lesson. The book is controversial, as many who read
the book think that Morgan made up the entire trip. Hummm…either way, still a series of valuable lessons
for a person to learn. Timely read for
me.
