Of Loss and Love

This is a lovely little book, full of wisdom and inspiration. You will want to keep it by your bedside and give it to your friends.



The author's journal follows her path toward healing after the loss of her husband, following a long and good marriage. She was suddenly alone and had to find a new way of living.



Soon after the funeral, she began to have new insights that she wanted to express on paper. The first pieces reflect the period of early widowhood, the days of raw hurt and loss. Anyone who has lost a loved one will relate deeply to these passages. Next came a time to embrace living, to dwell in the moment, to enjoy life's small and large gifts. And the last words were written when she ventured to find a new partner.



From time to time, she shared her writing with family and friends, and they encouraged her to publish, to communicate with a wider audience. Her engaging journey, expressed here, will offer enjoyment and insight.
