- Someone suggested this book, after I lost my 32 year old daughter to cancer. I ordered it, tried to read it, and put it down. It stayed stacked with other books, for two years. The beginning of this year I came across it again, opened and read. Now, I can finally read and appreciate it. It is six days until my daughter's birthday (my Valentine's baby), and this excerpt especially touched my heart.
"It surprises us. We know it's a fluke. We know it won't last.Happiness? Contentment? Joy?
And not just a quick flash of joy, of contentment--as when we are lifted up on wings of song--or by prayer--or by a spectacular sky--or because of a daisy blooming in some field. But a sense that in some way we are going to be able, after all this, to be happy! Whoever would have thought it?.......
It is life calling to us--See, you are mine. I have wonders in store for you, believe it or not. And I will wait for you--beneath the snow, if necessary, and beyond the storm."
When I came home this summer from being with my three grand children, I was full of joy and love. A thought came, "Why should I be happy? She is gone, and I'm all alone." I decided right there and then, that I would be happy, period. Was I happy that I had lost my daughter? Never in a million years, nor was I happy with how things happened or turned out, but I chose to be happy in life, despite what had happened, she would have wanted that.
Now that I can finally read this book, it has brought smiles and tears and is helping me heal even more. I wrote this so that those that are walking this road of shards of glass, when it has turned into a path of pebbles, you can pick this up, read and meditate. By the way, it is still a work in progress, I have many more days of happiness, joy and peace since I made that decision than before. Blessings! - I ordered this because I had just lost my dog. I know this is probably for human loss but I still pick it up after 8 months to find help. I feel that loss is loss and when you have a dog that is your constant companion for 16 1/2 years, you grieve over them as well.
- I lost my husband l0 months ago and a neighbor gave me this book. I cannot explain how many of the daily readings spoke directly to me. These readings are written by people who also have lost a loved one and they spoke of their agony.It seems I was no longer alone. These people shared the same agony I am still experiencing.
OF ALL THE READINGS I HAVE DONE THIS PAST YEAR - THIS WAS THE BEST.! CERTAINLY it doesn't bring my loved husband back but now know I am not suffering alone.
I have purchased several of these books for others. Every one is amazed how these pages seem to speak directly to each one of us. - I look forward to reading this every morning. I'm 57 and my Mom passed away very suddenly August 6, 2016. My Dad passed away 14 months previously - at times it more than I can handle - being no ones child has been a rather rude awakening to me.
- I don't write many reviews but this book is so exceptional that I had to write a review. My five year old son died suddenly and accidentally in 2013. I thought my life was over. I am an avid reader and bought every book on grieving I could find to try to help me cope and figure out how to keep living.
This little book is far and away my most treasured purchase. If I had to give away my entire library and keep one book, this would be it. The passages are short and easy to read in under five minutes, which is a blessing for those of us dealing with loss of concentration that comes with intense grief. Although short, the passages contain deep, thought provoking, yet simple, gentle and hopeful thoughts for those suffering from devastating loss.
I recently went away for a weekend and although packing space was limited, I took this book with me. That is how much a part of my morning routine it has become. It is not overtly religious, so I would feel comfortable giving this book to anyone, from the most religious person I know to the staunchest atheist. It is intelligent and insightful and does not give way to clichés or trite phrases that we hear all too often. I highly recommend it for anyone who has suffered the loss of a loved one. I am purchasing additional copies to family and friends who are also grieving. - Gret little book of daily inspirations- not too heavy., Many ppl who are grieving might find a book of more substance too tedious. This is light. Read daily or just now and again- when you are in the mood. Start in the middle or from the end..there are no rules. Nice to be able to look up special dates such as the date you lost your loved one or th day you met etc ... Recommended!
- I bought this book when I was coping with the loss of my grandmother- she was the first person close to me that I have lost. I found this book on here and couldn't be more glad that I did. Every time that I read it, a sense of comfort comes over me. It's extremely relatable and helpful to get in the right mindset. Everyone goes through grief and this book could be more spot on with words of love, inspiration and motivation.
I ended up buying this book for my grandfather, parents and aunt and they were so appreciative and have the best things to say about the book as well. My aunt read it all in a week, my grandfather picks it up occasionally and skips around and I prefer to read it daily- all ways have led my family to more peace. A must need for people going through hard times and need a little extra boost.
