So today's reading from the book "Healing after Loss" speaks to us in metaphoric terms of the birthing process(grief). With all its difficulties and dangers we must hold on and bear it, for if we do, we CAN make it through this hardship and come into full wakefuless through grief. And more importantly if done right; rest, reading, talking with understanding people, counseling, prayer....whatever you need, we will have new life!
I want desperately to make it through this birth of grief so that I can experience the new life that awaits me -

It will take lots of hard work and there are and will be days that I'm feeling too tired and overwhelmed to push forward - please remind me that I do want new life.
