Day 46 - Shabbat, December 9 - Coping with Bereavement

This book is like a little encyclopedia of Jewish life and I am more impressed with it with each passing day.

Again today, the concept of shiva, the beginning of the bereavement process, is explained in such a beautiful way. Many of us have been on shiva calls where it is nothing more than a cocktail party. If you have a friend or family member who has lost a loved one, you could do so much to help them by reading this essay and having them read it too.
