Grief comes to us in different ways, whether through bereavement, loss of a friendship, or emotional or physical pain. It may overwhelm us suddenly or creep upon us slowly over a long period of time. Yet however it visits us and in whatever guise, we are not alone in our pain, for grief is part of the universal human experience. Helen Jaeger has lived through her own dark valley of suffering; in this book, she shares the wisdom she has learnt. This wisdom centres round the following paths: Vulnerability; Silence; Mercy; Anger; Weakness; Tears; Surrender; Time; Letting Go. Each path comprises short reflections, meditations, poetry and quotations. Illustrated with beautiful colour photography, they offer hope, comfort and encouragement through the grieving process.
