About this Chapbook...

We have all lost a dear one at some point in ourlives. Grief, depending on the relationship with theone deceased, affects us differently. I feel my Dadaand Mausi's absence every single day for disparatereasons. But these two losses have taught me thattheir time had come. And that life is about celebratingthose alive and not just mourning those whohave moved on. Optimism and faith are the keys toovercoming the roadblocks life puts in our way.

This book tries to state that there is always hope foranyone coping with grief. No one can tell us exactlyhow; the voyage has to be undertaken by each of usindividually.
