Quote for the Week - Grief and Love

“Grief is love’s shadow...”

If you are going to love, you have to put up with grief sooner or later, but grief intensifies love. Grief drives love into the deeper parts of your soul and being. Maybe the passing of a loved one is as important as the altar in making an eternal marriage. ~ S. Michael Wilcox

Michael Wilcox is one on my favorite authors and teachers. I enjoyed attending his institute class. His wife, Laurie died of brain cancer in December and he has written a book titled “Sunset” which he hopes will help readers cope with death. It contains lessons he learned during the difficult, final months of his wife’s life. The book will be available next year. I have many of the CD’s he has recorded and would be happy to share them.
