Description

There is no escaping death.

The death of a loved one drops us to our knees. We feel as though the world has ended–and yet, death is a natural part of the human condition. All of us will suffer loss. In Beautiful Grief, Tony Rose and his daughter, Katie, extract the lessons they learned from the death of Jonny, Tony’s 28-year-old son and Katie’s brother.

• Grief stretches your emotional bandwidth. Though there is no “beating” grief, no getting over it, the extent to which you can feel joy, happiness, love, and compassion is directly proportional to the amount of pain, grief, sadness, and devastation you have felt.
• The death of a loved one will change your life. You will find yourself standing on the threshold between your previous way and what will become your new way. Remember, though, that “different” and “less” are not synonyms. Your new life will be different, for sure, but it need not be less.
• When you allow the future to unfold, you can find, create, and allow moments of happiness to stack on top of other moments of happiness, so that moments become days, and days become weeks, and the weeks become a life of beauty.

As you read this book, you will realize that you can unshackle yourself from grief.

Indeed, in the coming weeks, you will begin to understand that grief is your companion. You will realize that your pain carries lessons, asking you to grow to be wise, resilient, and, yes, even happy.
