Grief impacts everything we do. Every mood. Every activity. Every relationship. Every breath. In 2022 my family experienced the deaths of 4 close family members. My mother, my father-in-law, my younger brother, and our precious 26-year-old nephew. This came on the heels of losing a favorite aunt to Covid. It was an unimaginable and traumatic time. I doubted I could ever climb out of the darkness it created. Grief stole my joy. I had so little left of me.... the joyful me.... the confident me.... the strong me. I barely recognized myself. Eventually, as the fog of grief cleared, I knew that I was still me. I did not feel joyful, but I knew there was still joy underneath the damage. The joyous part of me was missing, but not gone forever. I can live without many things, but I refuse to live a life without joy. This book offers a path for managing grief and reclaiming joy through purposeful healing. It offers insight into using our own special gifts to bring joy to ourselves and others. It introduces ways to honor the memories of our loved ones while rebuilding a joyful life.
