You are "Grieved." That is why you are here. You are a fellow member in the club no one wants to belong to. You have lost someone you love and are trying to discover how to move forward, and possibly, who you are now. The Griefcase will help you do just that. Jason was handed his Griefcase, against his will, when his sixteen-year-old son died in a horrible car accident. His Griefcase was given to him by someone he didn't even know at the time, but Jason instantly understood he would carry it with him until the day he left this world behind. It was a heavy Griefcase, and so burdensome. It impacted Jason's life in every way, be it work, social events, and even at home. If he tried to move, it would hold him back, tripped him up, and was such an anchor on his life that it often frightened him. When he dared overcome his fears and look inside the Griefcase, he just wanted to slam the lid closed again. He saw a disorganized pile of manila folders strewn across the bottom of the case, each one labeled with different emotions, like shock, anger, guilt, and disbelief. Although he knew in his very soul he should face the contents inside, the confusion blocked out the solution for processing his grief. Come inside "The Griefcase" and learn the methods for sorting through the folders of corrosive emotions, and how to lighten your Griefcase so it becomes a cherished container of your loved one. You might be surprised to find out that when the Griefcase is lighter, there is room inside to toss in a pair of flip-flops and a bottle of suntan lotion. You will have earned a break...you loved one along with you in, "The Griefcase." Inside the book, "The Griefcase" you will find: The concept of the Griefcase How to Use the Griefcase Overcoming Male Ego in loss Human Nature/Nurture traits Our need to express emotions The vilest of emotions Your invisible Griefcase The Griefcase of others Taking your Griefcase to work ...And so much more Use The Griefcase to move forward towards wholeness and healing.

From the globally acclaimed, best-selling novelist and author of We Should All Be Feminists, a timely and deeply personal account of the loss of her father: “With raw eloquence, Notes on Grief … captures the bewildering messiness of loss in a society that requires serenity, when you’d rather just scream. Grief is impolite ... Adichie’s words put welcome, authentic voice to this most universal of emotions, which is also one of the most universally avoided” (The Washington Post). Notes on Grief is an exquisite work of meditation, remembrance, and hope, written in the wake of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's beloved father’s death in the summer of 2020. As the COVID-19 pandemic raged around the world, and kept Adichie and her family members separated from one another, her father succumbed unexpectedly to complications of kidney failure. Expanding on her original New Yorker piece, Adichie shares how this loss shook her to her core. She writes about being one of the millions of people grieving this year; about the familial and cultural dimensions of grief and also about the loneliness and anger that are unavoidable in it. With signature precision of language, and glittering, devastating detail on the page—and never without touches of rich, honest humor—Adichie weaves together her own experience of her father’s death with threads of his life story, from his remarkable survival during the Biafran war, through a long career as a statistics professor, into the days of the pandemic in which he’d stay connected with his children and grandchildren over video chat from the family home in Abba, Nigeria. In the compact format of We Should All Be Feminists and Dear Ijeawele, Adichie delivers a gem of a book—a book that fundamentally connects us to one another as it probes one of the most universal human experiences. Notes on Grief is a book for this moment—a work readers will treasure and share now more than ever—and yet will prove durable and timeless, an indispensable addition to Adichie's canon.

Our existence on earth is not infinite. Shortly after the breath of life came to the Garden of Eden, so too did the ultimate reality of death and losing someone loved deeply. Mourning and grief, therefore, are as old as mankind itself, and have frequently been the impassioned topic of many well-known philosophers, poets and profits over the centuries.When grief is heavy it is difficult for any words to ease the pain. Yet, along my own journey towards a "New Normal", I would occasionally pick up renowned quotes, verses or famous lines which seemed to resonate within my aching heart. I held on to those little gems of wisdom, taking comfort in the awareness that almost every soul that ever existed had also traveled the painful path of loss. In Grief Healings 365, I have compiled only those words of wisdom which will motivate you to "Move Forward" in your grief journey. Within these pages are noted and inspirational lines from such greats as Moses, Plato, Lao Tzu, Abraham Lincoln and other brilliant minds of the past. You will also find poetry and pieces of creative works from Shakespeare, Dickens, Twain and others, as well as specific Bible verses, cultural prayers and proverbs on grief. This collection of inspiring daily words is yours to use as you wish. There is a quote for each day of the year, beginning with January 1st on page one, January 2nd on page two, and so forth through December 31st. You do not, however, have to begin this book on page one. In fact, my recommendation is that you begin with the month and day in which you first picked up the book. Keep it at your bedside and begin each day with a new inspiration and carry the thought with you until you fall asleep that night. Almost every page inside has space for you to jot down your own thoughts or interpretations of the day's passage. If you take advantage of this, as you work through each day and return to the page a year later, your own notes will bear witness to how far you moved forward in your journey. Do not stop because you have already read each day throughout the previous year. Instead, continue the inspirational cycle and continue to heal. I do hope the revered words contained within Grief Healings 365 will give you the comfort given to me. May you find relief in the knowledge that throughout the ages there have been those who were committed to healing and moving forward in loss. May you too find peace and purpose in their words.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
