I’ve read many books on grief and loss and I find most books are written by professionals and offer clinical information about grief and loss. What I really want to read is a book written by a widow. A book that talks about losing your husband, the emotional rollercoaster and the inner process of starting a new life.
One day, I got a tweet from Catherine (@leafer04) offering me a copy of the book she wrote titled Profound Blessings. Catherine is a widow so I jumped at the chance to read her book. Here is the description on Smashwords for Profound Blessings:
“After reeling from the loss of a lifetime, fate has brought her to the cliffs of Lake Superior to let her heart run free. On this extraordinary day, she would have a serendipitous encounter with an old man who carried pockets full of field corn, that changed the course of her life. An encounter that taught her the truest meaning of love, how to keep her memories warm, and gave her heart the courage to find its way home. “
After I read the description, I knew this was the book I was looking for! I started reading the book right away and could not stop. In fact, I read the book in one night. Profound Blessing is a must read for widows. Catherine’s love story with her husband and then her journey after his death is so inspirational and raw. You feel all her emotions and realize that you are not the only one on the emotional rollercoaster called widowhood.
