Some beautiful words on grief and loss

This was a lovely book to have listened to and the insight into someone’s grief process really spoke to me.. A reblog from a few years ago

I just finished listening to a very beautiful book on CD.  It was about an Asian woman who shortly before migrating to Australia adopted a dog from an animal shelter called Max.   The entire book is very soulful and beautifully written, besides telling the story of the relationship between the author Ying Ying and her adopted buddy and best friend Max, it is also a deep contemplation and exploration of the spiritual aspect of animals, of the special bond and part they play in our lives and the ways they can touch us and connect with us at a deep soul level.  I highly recommend it not only to dog lovers but dog lovers will be in tears by the end of it, I can assure you.

The book was especially poignant as I borrowed it from the library shortly before my Mum died a month or so ago…

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.
