Synopsis

This is a book of inspirational stories and poems dealing with grief, loss and spiritual growth. From the author's personal experience with the suicide death of her father, she has drawn a wise and compassionate perspective on the importance of healing grief in order to permit spiritual growth. These writings are presented as a gentle guide to those who suffer grief and a beacon of hope for those who are lost in despair. Like a good friend, they accompany the reader down the road of healing, offering support and encouragement along the way, and providing illumination for the journey. Stories deal specifically with healing the wounds of childhood, finding meaning in suffering, seeing the Divine in everything, and developing compassion. Opening the heart and the soul, these stories act as catalysts for spiritual and personal growth.
