None of us escapes the heartache and disappointments of life. To live is to hurt, and we all have the wounds to prove it. Regardless of how we've been hurt, we all face a common question: What should we do with our pain? Should we stoically ignore it? Should we just "get over it"? Should we optimistically hope that everything will work out in the end? If we fail to respond appropriately to the wounds that life and relationships inflict, our pain will be wasted; it will numb us or destroy us. But suffering doesn't have to mangle our hearts and rob us of... Don't Waste Your Pain

ISBN: 9781580511087 / Angielski / Miękka / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This latter piece is crucial--living well and dying well requires us to love and accompany one another in our journeys.
