Description
Judith Viorst presents a thoughtful exploration of love, loss, and letting go in this philosophy for understanding and accepting life's inevitabilities. Drawing on psychoanalysis, literature, and personal experience, she examines how we grow and change through the losses that are a certain and necessary part of life. Through the loss of our mothers' protection, the loss of impossible expectations in relationships, the loss of our younger selves, and the loss of loved ones through separation and death, we gain deeper perspective, true maturity, and fuller wisdom about life. This book offers a life-affirming and life-changing perspective on the importance of embracing and learning from our losses.
