As I Journey On: Meditations for Those Facing Death
Sharon Dardis, Cindy Rogers
Synopsis
|
People who know they will soon die face questions, decisions, and conversations that others
choose to avoid, and finding comfort and support can be difficult. All too often, books about
the end of life address the family, friend, and caretaker, but not the person dying. As I
Journey On: Meditations for Those Facing Death offers a collection of stories that
pertain to the end of life, many from the perspective of a dying person. Forty meditations
are arranged by topic, such as anger, worry, dying alone, endurance, hanging on, good-byes,
letting go, grieving, darkness, treasures, loneliness, laughter, wishes, gratitude, hope, and
children. Each meditation offers hope and includes a prayer, a question to consider, and an
opportunity for the reader to make a resolution for the day. Readers will appreciate being
addressed with dignity and respect for the lessons they can learn-and share-as they journey
on. |
