The most helpful book given to me when my husband died. It really helped me through the first months of grieving. I passed the book onto a friend when I had finshed with it and have since purchased a few more for other bereaved friends.

Hard times made easier
3 Mar 2002
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered this book and have ended up giving it away to dear friends. It is perfect to replace the "SYMPATHY" card which often has briefly written comfort words that don't comfort. This book has so many thoughts to let the grieving know they are not alone, and that healing can be ahead. It goes through the seasons of grief and loss. I hope someone will send me one of these book when my turn comes to hurt rather than a card and flowers. I am glad there are comforters who write and understand.

Sensitive and compassionate
23 Jan 2001
Format:Paperback
-but more than that the entire book has a tone of respect, a reverence for life that rings very true. This book has been a gift to myself and my family. Unlike "Pop" psychology guides that might put someone "in their heads"(and out of their feelings), this is an artfully crafted piece that speaks to the heart and soul. Reading this feels like a visit with a wise old friend.
Mr. Miller has included profound quotes, from Helen Keller to Shakespeare, and also from the Bible. His collection of wisdom is from such varied sources that even this works for the reader in that it is apparent and comforting - that wisdom, like grief, cuts across time,gender,and social circumstance. It is wonderfully human. If you have a heartbeat you'll get this.

One of my survival tools
10 April 2007
Format:Paperback
Following the death of my son, "Seasons of Grief and Healing" was the first book I could actually read (and I mean actually read the sentences and understand and relate to their meanings). I would only read until what the book was saying stopped pretaining to me and how I was feeling. I would later pick up the book and continue to read until, again, it was beyond what I was feeling or could comprehend. I haven't quite finished the book yet...I'm just to that stage yet.
I now give this book to people I know who have lost a very important person in their life hoping that they too will be able to find some encouragements, faith, and/or hope in the words of the quotes, poems and passages within this wonderful book. Thank you Mr. Miller
