While no one wants to experience loss, there is tremendous learning to be had from grieving--whether from the loss of a job, loved one, a home, or one's own hopes and dreams. This book views loss and change during midlife as "fertilizer" for new dreams. Many stories of loss show how grieving can evolve into a period of new beginnings.
