The women featured in this anthology asked the "biggest questions there are" while searching for meaning and purpose after the death of a child. In the process they have been "enlarged by distress" (adapted Psalm 4:1).
Most of all, grief is a spiritual journey of the heart and soul . . . It's natural to ask ourselves meaning-of-life questions after someone we love dies. Why do people die? What happens after death? What is the meaning of our existence? Will I be able to find meaning in my life again? Spiritual struggles after a death are not simple to reconcile. After all, these are some of the biggest questions there are. It takes many of us a lifetime to arrive at a place of peace in our spiritual journeys. Still, you can start by actively working on spiritual self-care.
"A central need of authentic mourning is the instinct to 'tell the story.' Stories of love and loss. Stories of pain and joy. Stories of hopes fulfilled and dreams lost. The stories shared in this compilation are beautiful reminders of our shared humanity. Through re-telling the story we honor those that go before us. In the pages of this book you will discover not just profound grief, but love, faith, hope, and courage." -Alan D.
