The Grieving Heart Journal: A Collection of Poetry and Prose - Paperback

Rosman, Deb: - I am a writer, a seeker of joy and a change agent I can only speak from my own experiences and observations in life. This book, The Grieving Heart, was written because it is critical to grieve. It is my firm belief that, only after you have grieved completely, can you turn around and embrace life fully again. Change is the only constant in life so accepting that truth sets you free to live. My life has been rich and full of love. I am blessed, but like everyone else, I have known loss and will continue to do so. Within a ten-year period, I lost my father, a sister and a close family friend followed by my beloved mother; and for what it's worth, my condo from fire. During that decade, I began writing to help understand my losses as well as the losses of others' around me. When first my father died, I wore my grief for him like a badge honor. I felt that if I wasn't in anguish each day, I was somehow dishonoring his memory. One day, out of nowhere, I realized that my father would not want this despair for his daughter; and so, I began to honor his memory in other ways. It is my sincere hope that one of pieces in this book will resonate within you, Dear Reader, and help you on your journey to peace. Understand that it is critical to grieve when you experience loss so that you can fully embrace life again. https: //debrosman.com/
