'fixed'. But friends can wash a sink full of dishes, listen, go
along on a cemetery visit. Sharing another's grief is not about
'fixing-it'- it's about showing up.Harold Ivan Smith, popular
speaker and grief educator, guides others to respond with their
heart. He shows tangible, meaningful ways to make a significant
difference as one journeys through grief with someone they care
about.

Servant of God Nicholas Black Elk (1863-1950) is popularly
celebrated for his fascinating spiritual life. How could one man,
one deeply spiritual man, serve as both a traditional Oglala Lakota
medicine man and a Roman Catholic catechist and mystic? How did
these two spiritual and cultural identities enrich his prayer life?
How did his commitment to God, understood through his Lakota and
Catholic communities, shape his understanding of how to be in the
world? To fully understand the depth of Black Elk's life-long
spiritual quest requires a deep appreciation of his life story. He
witnessed devastation on the battlefields of Little Bighorn and the
Massacre at Wounded Knee, but also extravagance while performing
for Queen Victoria as a member of "Buffalo Bill" Cody's Wild West
Show. Widowed by his first wife, he remarried and raised eight
children. Black Elk's spiritual visions granted him wisdom and
healing insight beginning in his childhood, but he grew
progressively physically blind in his adult years. These stories,
and countless more, offer insight into this extraordinary man whose
cause for canonization is now underway at the Vatican.
The Book of Forgiving, written together by the Nobel Peace Laureate
Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and his daughter Revd Mpho Tutu, offers a
deeply personal testament and guide to the process of forgiveness.
All of us have at times needed both to forgive and be forgiven -
whether small, everyday harms or real traumas. But the path to
forgiveness is not easy, and the process unclear. How do we let go
of resentment when we have been harmed, at times irreparably? How
do we forgive and still pursue justice? How do we heal our hearts,
and move on? How do we forgive ourselves for the harm we have
caused others? Drawing on his memories of reconciliation in
post-apartheid South Africa, Archbishop Desmond Tutu has identified
four concrete steps to forgiveness through which we must all pass
if we are to reach our destination: 1) Admitting the wrong and
acknowledging the harm 2) Telling one's story and witnessing the
anguish 3) Asking for forgiveness and granting forgiveness 4)
Renewing or releasing the relationship Each chapter contains
reflections and personal stories, as well as exercises for
practising each step of the path. The Book of Forgiving is a
touchstone and tool for anyone seeking the freedom of forgiveness:
an inspiring guide to healing ourselves and creating a more united
world.

Mans leef in ’n węreld waar die rolle van manlikheid so verander het dat dit met
tye vir hulle moeilik is om te weet wie hulle werklik is en wat van hulle verwag
word. Die eise wat ’n gewone dag aan mans stel kan soms selfs die mees ervare
individu laat twyfel aan sy bevoegdhede. Die boek skep ’n bewustheid by mense,
en nie net mans nie, van die alledaagse en mees algemene lewensuitdagings
waarvoor mans te staan kom, en probeer hulle toerus met relevante inligting wat
hulle sal help om meer doeltreffende, emosioneel gelukkige en vervulde lewens te
lei. Die boek word verdeel in verhoudings- en lewensfase-uitdagings, verslawing,
gemoedsprobleme en traumatiese ervarings.
