Second, my strong childhood curiosity and proclivity to reading and writing happened early and has persisted into these later years.
Third, my academic and professional librarian and research experiences are broad, diverse, and universal. I am neither a scientist nor a philosopher, but after fifty years of meditation, many truths were revealed to me. Stoicism is the philosophy that best correlates with accepting life’s bumps as they come.
I approached this book from the perspective of a Christian widow to provide comfort to people of all faiths. I write to inspire healing and resilience in the time of great loss of a spouse, a loved one, wars, pandemic isolation, and even the unique American sickness called mass murders.показать меньше
