This is a book about Death. It is also a book about Life. It’s about discovering blessings, even in the most painful episodes. Most importantly, it’s a book about Love.

Abstract:
The only way to remove the darkness is to illuminate it, to shine the spotlight in the darkest corner, and to open our eyes wide to observe it (whatever “it” is) with an absence of fear. Inevitably, each dim, earthly adventure brings the balance of light. The divine laws of nature and of karma ensure that there must be the “yang” with the “yin.” Dissecting and breaking down to a microscopic level to fully examine even the most nefarious side of life is the way to bring light to the shadows we dread.

  Thought Provoking , 10/03/2007
Reviewer: Luna
Captivating! Candid and powerful. The author writes with eloquence and candor, and with an artful hand. I could not put this book down; it's a spellbinding page turner. Since reading this, I have been looking at every little detail of life with a fresh perspective. Late for work? Could have saved you from an accident. Bad break-up? GOOD! There's a wonderful reason and an opportunity for growth. She really shows us that there is a blessing in every wicked or lovely event. I'll give thanks daily for everything that happens from now on, no matter how 'dark' it seems at the time. Thought provoking.

Reviewer: M. Ashley
It is difficult to get through the first chapter. It is heart-wrenching, making your insides hurt. If you have experienced anything like losing someone close to you, you will relate in a way that makes it painful to read. But, by the end, the author has made you realize the beauty that lies hidden within that pain. There are reasons for everything; sometimes it just takes more dissecting to find them. Read it; you won't regret it.
