Pairing breathtaking photography of the Seattle area with poignant prose, local author/photographer Becky Gibler takes readers on a deeply personal journey through grief after losing her partner of 19 years. It is deeply moving and I would highly suggest it to anyone who is mourning someone they love. Becky has accomplished something incredible here. While the book features an LGBTQ+ relationship (which is not often depicted in this genre) she proves that, truly, love is love. This book is for anyone who has loved or lost and I thank her for writing it.
Have you experienced a significant loss and feel that you are completely alone? Are you consumed with grief and can't find a way through the darkness? Do you fear it will never get better?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, this book is for you. Although grief is a universal experience, how we deal with grief is an individual process. Confusion, memory loss, and disrupted sleep patterns become a new normal. You may start to wonder if things will ever get better and if you can possibly be happy again.
This is a story of one person's journey of grief and healing. It's meant to bring hope and light to those who can't see a way through the darkness. Grief is a life-long process, but it does get easier.
