A book you will want to share with a loved one who has lost. September 15, 1999 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
My brother lost his 18yr old daughter to a drunk driver. As we celebrated her life at the ocean, throwing rose petals and watching them come back to us, David pulled from his pocket this worn and dogeared book and read beautiful passages. It was wonderful help to he and his wife.
Very helpful as the thoughts are concise and brief. September 4, 1999 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This book is one that can be picked up for daily meditations that can be read in a minute, but helps to get through a certain aspect of grieving with the backdrop of Christian hope. Even non-religious folks will find consolation and clear thinking in the meditations.
This book is a Godsend since I lost my husband two years ago May 4, 1999 26 out of 28 found this review helpful
I was dealing with the devastation and loss of my husband after a fight with the evil cancer. I did not want to live. My whole life changed and I would have done anything to have him back. But, I kept living and I couldn't get him back no matter what. This book has had a profound affect in helping me deal with and get through this painful phase called grieving. The writings of 365 different people and days describes so effectively the feelings and reality of what grief is. I still read it daily. So many of the comparisons hit home. I have bought it for two friends who have recently lost loved ones. I highly recommend it to any grieving person who needs to understand the emotional and painful process they are going through. You aren't alone.
Generous, comforting, healing, words for the broken hearted March 31, 1999 This book speaks to the heart. Feel free to give it to anyone experiencing the pain of loss. It transcends religious differences and tenderly guides the grieving heart through the myriad of confusing feelings and unspeakable pain that comes with great loss. This book is my daily companion on the path of suffering and recovery following the death of my sweet daughter.
Inspirational, beneficial when "in the mud" of grief January 18, 1999 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
When in grief, regardless of whether it is new or some time ago, one needs words of wisdom that cut through the pain. This little book speaks volumes. I highly recommend it for one's self if one has not read it and also to give it as a gift to another heart in pain. For one suffering a fresh wound this little book will begin the healing process; for one who is still hurting, this will give comfort and peace. At the beginning of a fresh wound little makes sense, one has difficulty focusing, but this author beautifully captures one's attention with sensitivity and tenderness. To the author, Thank You
