Insights Hurt: Bringing Healing Thoughts To Life - Softcover

Loss, love, crises of faith and anguish are a part of being human. If lucky, pain brings insight that enable healing. Over the course of several years, I experienced all of the highs and lows of relationships (each more than once). To cope, I wrote. I wrote to myself. I wrote to those I loved. I wrote to those I lost. I wrote to those who I just wanted to see that I was coping. And I wrote to nobody in particular. Through it all, my words brought me comfort. But something surprising happened. I learned that my words brought comfort to others. My struggle was their struggle. I articulated what they were feeling, but could not say. As I counseled myself, I was also counseling them. This book shares those insights. The insights hurt - at least they did at the team. But they also brought healing and a life now filled with happiness.
