"There is something about this book that won't let go of me. I read it in three sittings, as I became enthralled with the main character Nathan, from the get-go. His honest, bare-naked, and non-stop internal dialogue, was frightfully similar to my own. I imagine it would resonate in a similar manner with anyone who seeks spiritual growth - yet is saddled with a lifetime of learned habits, judgements (self and others), and unmet expectations..."

"This story renews your faith, reinforces hope and reminds you not to lose your sense of humor. I believe it is a “gift” to anyone facing fear of any kind."

"I find that I like your presentation of your words that for me has a tendency to take one to an abstract—sometimes obscure place, winding around to draw you in to understanding or at the very least, exquisite pondering."

"In Who Would I Be Without, Jim McDonald has provided a real gift to those readers who are looking for a path to personal growth.  He shares a fascinating mosaic journey into an unexplored life which gives us the message that we can find a knowing and an inner peace within if we avoid the quick fix, trust our intuition, persevere and be ever mindful that life is a moment-by-moment marathon and not a fifty-yard dash.  And, that there is no finish line."
Karl Bunkelman, health care consultant
While Nathan Vrite’s life is ordinary in many ways, it is miraculous in one—he has somehow found that little bit of willingness needed to show him another way; another way of being in the world.  It is a story of discovering resistance, and the suffering that comes with our unconscious need to know and understand as a way to feel safe in the world.  The willingness Nathan finds, leads him to become a student of his own experience as he begins to uncover the peace and joy that lie inside, waiting to shine forth.
Who Would I Be Without is a story of awakening from the illusion of fear, and the healing powers of self-love. 
We go with Nathan as he begins to look at these factors and the influence they have on his life, and his very being.  We join in Nathan’s journey of discovery as he embarks on a life-altering process of looking at himself as he has never done before.  Along the way we realize that Nathan’s story is our own, and that if we too are wondering how to find the peace and joy we sense is there, Nathan just may show us how a little willingness is all we need.
