A Story About Grief Recovery

The author makes some good points about recovery in widowhood. Though the story can go long at some points--such as when she discusses flowers in minute detail--she also shares insightful wisdom into the journey of grief and some if it's complications. The difficulties faced in beginning over alone, exploring new relationships etc. I appreciate her candor as she arrives to walk this journey our in faith.
