Book Recommendation: "When Things Fall Apart" by Pema Chodron
Edited on Wed Jul-29-09 08:27 PM by Fire Walk With Me
I had read this previously but it's been especially helpful at this time, so I wished to pass along the regard to any it might benefit, if it calls out to them.

1. Thank you, FWWM.
This might prove helpful to some of my friends who are having difficulties right now. I've been hearing "everything is falling apart" quite a bit lately. :(

2. Remember what Karen Bishop said about this being The Fall.
(Not the lovely British rock group.) ;)

Very good condition hardcover, $5.00 including shipping.

3. Thanks for the information, FWWM.
I have to buy new books because of allergy issues; I can't even get books out from the library. :cry:

I have faith that my friends will come out on the other side stronger than they were when they started. The question is how long will it take for that to happen. It's such a painful thing to see people who you love suffer. All that you can really do is be there for them when they need it. :(

While I was thinking of it, I went to Amazon.com and ordered a new copy for myself. I'll pass it on to my friends who need it who live in my area.

Thanks again, FWWM.

:hug:
