Download or read book Grief Healings 365 written by R. Glenn Kelly and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-01-10 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our existence on earth is not infinite. Shortly after the breath of life came to the Garden of Eden, so too did the ultimate reality of death and losing someone loved deeply. Mourning and grief, therefore, are as old as mankind itself, and have frequently been the impassioned topic of many well-known philosophers, poets and profits over the centuries.When grief is heavy it is difficult for any words to ease the pain. Yet, along my own journey towards a "New Normal", I would occasionally pick up renowned quotes, verses or famous lines which seemed to resonate within my aching heart. I held on to those little gems of wisdom, taking comfort in the awareness that almost every soul that ever existed had also traveled the painful path of loss. In Grief Healings 365, I have compiled only those words of wisdom which will motivate you to "Move Forward" in your grief journey. Within these pages are noted and inspirational lines from such greats as Moses, Plato, Lao Tzu, Abraham Lincoln and other brilliant minds of the past. You will also find poetry and pieces of creative works from Shakespeare, Dickens, Twain and others, as well as specific Bible verses, cultural prayers and proverbs on grief. This collection of inspiring daily words is yours to use as you wish. There is a quote for each day of the year, beginning with January 1st on page one, January 2nd on page two, and so forth through December 31st. You do not, however, have to begin this book on page one. In fact, my recommendation is that you begin with the month and day in which you first picked up the book. Keep it at your bedside and begin each day with a new inspiration and carry the thought with you until you fall asleep that night. Almost every page inside has space for you to jot down your own thoughts or interpretations of the day's passage. If you take advantage of this, as you work through each day and return to the page a year later, your own notes will bear witness to how far you moved forward in your journey. Do not stop because you have already read each day throughout the previous year. Instead, continue the inspirational cycle and continue to heal. I do hope the revered words contained within Grief Healings 365 will give you the comfort given to me. May you find relief in the knowledge that throughout the ages there have been those who were committed to healing and moving forward in loss. May you too find peace and purpose in their words.

Download or read book Healing the Grieving Heart written by Del McAlister and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-09-21 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We often speak of grief as a journey - one without charts, telescope, or compass. It can be likened to sailing through uncharted waters in dense fog without any knowledge of the sea conditions, weather forecast, or destination. You cannot avoid your grief journey. You cannot choose to disembark. All you can do is hang on for dear life. You will eventually learn to navigate this voyage. The conditions will become familiar, and you'll find ways to adapt. Eventually you will discover some safe havens and calmer waters. In this book I speak of embracing bereavement by regarding grief not as a problem to be borne, but as an expression of love. I also strongly promote the concept of continuing bonds whereby we remain connected to our dear ones after they've died. May you find peace in knowing that you never have to let go of the bond of love between you and your beloved one. I encourage you to open your heart to continue to feel their love in unexpected, personal, and special ways. I trust you will grasp the thread of comfort, messages of healing, and glimmers of hope I have interwoven in these pages, through my writing, and the wisdom shared by others. The intention behind writing this book has been to help people learn to live with grief, not get over it. Instead of beating around the bush, I have chosen to address many raw issues relating to bereavement; issues that many people ignore. My purpose is to provide you with a selection of survival strategies to enable you to better carry your grief. Who better to add to my writings than those who are also grieving? I include their stories to inspire and ignite hope in your heart.
