My blog's focus started out as an exercise to help me learn to live with the deep grief I was experiencing after my daughter's unexpected death. Looking back on the blog I truly hope some of the posts have touched other people's hearts who are living with the heartbreak of losing someone they love. Many years later the focus shifted to include things that I find interesting or compelled to share but I have never lost the main focus of the blog--GRIEF. (updated Jan 2025)

Suggested Reading: Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay
This is an amazing book. It is not a historical novel but it will enlighten you about the heart-wrenching act that took place in Nazi-occupied Paris on July, 16, 1942. I wasn't even aware of the role the French played in the heinous act until reading this book. Four thousand French Jewish children were murdered during the Vel’ d’ Hiv roundup, along with thousands of adults. You will definitely shed tears. The Holocaust can NEVER be forgotten.
