“Resolute Imagination is the Beginning of All Magical Operations.”
This remarkable, unconventional—and even adventurous—account of the death of the author’s husband, and her fierce determination to find him again beyond death, blazes a new trail in books about recovery from heartbreak.
Through poetry, quotations, and powerful storytelling, this book bypasses the typical psychological stages of grief model.
Instead, it offers a new and compelling exploration of the three spiritual challenges every bereaved person must meet:
Body: Will grief kill me?
Soul: Who am I without my beloved?
Spirit: What is my source of strength?
As Rondi charts her journey to healing over the course of her first year alone, it is a time filled with hope and prophetic dreams, amazing synchronicities, and numerous experiences of contact from her husband. One is via a unique messenger from the natural world, both joyful and so extraordinary, it defines her new path in life for decades to come.
Vital lives are all about action . . . you can’t know serendipity unless you risk.
