Waiting for dawn : living with uncertainty / Marisa Renee Lee.

Lee, Marisa Renee, (author.).

Summary:

"Lee guides you through the hard times that arise unexpectedly and disrupt your life for indeterminate periods. Uncertainty and fear impact how you interact with the world and understand your place in it. You manage the loneliness and isolation by convincing others that you are fine. Lee debunks the idea that you must force positivity and, instead, helps you learn how to hold compassion for yourself in hard times. Through rich, revelatory prose, Lee assists you in navigating life's unstable and overwhelming moments. Using research and her personal experiences, she argues that self-preservation is necessary when life is at its worst. If you are experiencing pain, chronic stress, or loneliness or are burdened with self-doubt, Waiting for Dawn brings you from a place of instability to hope. Lee shares her two-year journey battling loss and illness--the death of her mother-in-law, ongoing sickness, and the emotional challenges she endured--that taught her that healing is about finding your own unique way through the darkness. Waiting for Dawn provides a compass to help you rediscover your worth and identify how to live well. These dark periods are necessary for things to grow and transform, but it never stays dark forever."-- Provided by publisher.
