HOW TO SURVIVE THE LOSS OF LOVE

HOW TO SURVIVE THE LOSS OF LOVE : "Let's take a moment to view loss in the larger perspective. In nature, loss is an essential element of creation--the rose blossoms, the bud is lost; the plant sprouts, the seed is lost; the day begins, the night is lost. In all cases, loss sets the stage for further creation (or, more accurately, re-creation).

So it is in human life. It's hard to look back on any gain in life that does not have a loss attached to it.

With this firmly in mind we can examine the various losses in life. (Without this overview it tends to become awfully depressing.)"

The full text of this wise and compassionate book is available online, free of cost ! It's one of my favourite books, and is especially helpful for caregivers.
