This can be a hard book to read if you have suffered the loss of a loved one. It starts out very basic, giving LDS beliefs and background, but that soon gives way to deeper discussions on how God expects his chosen people to behave when in mourning, with compassion and understanding as well. It is an eye opener about life and death and whether or not "God's Will" is in every death. People also have their will as well, and a straightforward discussion about moral agency ensues. I am VERY glad show more I read it, but i was not always glad as I was reading it. A book I am keeping in my Library. show less
"Today we have a little more time to bless others--time to be kinder, more compassionate, quicker to thank and slower to scold, more generous in sharing, more gracious in caring. Since happiness is the object of our existence, taking time to smell the roses is advisable. Joy is a journey, not a destination."
This is a gentle compilation about death and morning.
I suppose most people don't really know the story of Caroline Grant, wife of Jedidiah Grant and how her baby daughter died. It's show more worth reading before you read the book. show less
