FRIENDSHIP – IT’S NOT A NUMBERS GAME You can have one friend – one single friend – whose support is so fierce, so fabulously fierce, that you feel like there is an army behind you. I’m a big believer in singing loudly in the car whenever possibleand I love pulling alongside a fellow diva doing the same. I recommend this book to anyone who is confused about their grief, who struggles and wonders how long it will hurt. She also gently guides us, no matter how busy or overburdened we may be, to practice better self-care and self-acceptance. Here is another title by this author whose works are written in an easy to read way and yet offer much meaning.Readers are cherishing Loss - 'Emotional and beautifully written poems that reach out and speak to you. Donna does this beautifully and leads us to a peace where grief and love coexist and perhaps describe the other. Tell the teenagersThat they are not being left behind, that all the other young people are waiting too, this stress is collective. Even if you never had one, even if you don’t have any experience of that maternal love, there is a hole inside of you that perhaps, you didn’t even know you had.

From the minute I open my eyes there are 2 small people, several big people and even some animals who are relying on me for many different reasons. There are many things to fear in this life but I have found that there is one to be feared above all the things you failed to say. A guidebook for navigating the many complicated connections we humans have, these poems give wisdom and advice to maintain and grow the love we hold for friends, partners, family and ourselves, inspiring us to cherish the joy it brings. Some are not necessarily poetry as I would imagine it so much but still resonated and felt they belonged in this collection.And yet I am still thinking about you pretty much all the time, which is strange because I didn’t know you at all, in real life. Donna’s words are constantly flying around the internet bringing people together and most importantly, sharing our collective struggles with just the right words, when you need them most.
