～　一段找尋連結、歸屬與認同感的旅程　～ 一場在疏離、淡漠世界裡的真實探險 引領你重啟與他人建立連結的能力 學會享受一個人的人生，也樂在一群人的生活 我們需要享受孤獨的智慧與勇氣，也需要感受被愛和擁有歸屬感。 當我們只把焦點放在自己身上，或過度美化孤獨，或害怕被拒絕， 放棄了與更多「人」、「事」、「物」建立連結的機會， 也將失去更多了解自己、改變自己的可能性。 學習在人群中找到一個喜歡、又適合自己的位置， 就能找到生命的著力點， 為自己發現快樂，創造更美好、豐富的生活。 或許你與親人家族間維持著極濃密的情感，也有多位相識數十年的摯友，就人際關係而言，你並不孤單，但你是否還是有種失落的感受，覺得自己活得不夠踏實，人際情感和生活中缺少了什麼？ 結束一段感情，搬回多倫多老家的艾蜜莉正是如此。熱愛生命與生活的她為了找尋人際情感生活失落的一角，決定展開一個「尋找歸屬感」的挑戰計畫。 「歸屬感＝在團體中備受歡迎、被需要或被接納的感受＋能適應或融入該團體的感受」 艾蜜莉遵循著此原則，從自己所熱愛的人事物為起點，包括：狗、家庭、社區鄰里、大自然、信仰與當義工等，從中尋求認同與被接納感，進而發現快樂。 在執行這項挑戰計畫的過程中，她有許多體悟，也更了解自己。例如，她喜愛與人相處，也喜歡屬於某個團體的感覺，但原來自己並不想隨傳隨到，或一直與人聊不停；她參加瑜珈與游泳課程、加入社區服務活動、從事動保義工，但發現並不是每項活動都那麼適合自己；同時她也學會了當被自小就信仰的宗教排拒在外時該如何處理。 她認為，尋找歸屬感、與人建立連結，每個人都可以靠自己做到，她發現： ...
