Excellent if you are dealing with a loss...
Martha Whitmore Hickman does an excellent job of encouraging those who have lost a loved one. Her book is poetic and is written with love. I can see that since she lost her teenage daughter and she speaks from personal experience.
She is respectful of the grief process yet she nudges you slowly to enjoying the moment and accept that the situation cannot be changed but your reaction can. She also offers comfort in that one can actually feel the presence of a loved one who has passed.
This is true because I recently lost my father and every now and then I do feel him near or I will dream of him and it seems too real and vivid.
Losing someone can be heart wrenching but Ms. Hickman is an excellent example of balancing the grieving process with hope.

What a fantastic book.
