First published in 1996. This new book gives voice to an emerging consensus among bereavement scholars that our understanding of the grief process needs to be expanded. The dominant 20th century model holds that the function of grief and mourning is to cut bonds with the deceased, thereby freeing the survivor to reinvest in new relationships in the present. Pathological grief has been defined in terms of holding on to the deceased. Close examination reveals that this model is based more on the cultural values of modernity than on any substantial data of what people actually do. Presenting data from several populations, 22 authors - among the most respected in their fields - demonstrate that the health resolution of grief enables one to maintain a continuing bond with the deceased. Despite cultural disapproval and lack of validation by professionals, survivors find places for the dead in their on-going lives and even in their communities. Such bonds are not denial: the deceased can provide resources for enriched functioning in the present. Chapters examine widows and widowers, bereaved children, parents and siblings, and a population previously excluded from bereavement research: adoptees and their birth parents. Bereavement in Japanese culture is also discussed, as are meanings and implications of this new model of grief. Opening new areas of research and scholarly dialogue, this work provides the basis for significant developments in clinical practice in the field.

In the year 2104, Alliroue is living in luxury. A city-state built from her own prestige, a utopia of science and ingenuity. After being born with her heart tied to an ancient Deity, everything has been given to her, aside from a restful night not filled with constant anxiety about the radiation sickness that's killed 50% of the world's population. Marcos was born via Alliroue's technological prowess and the grants gifted to her from across the world. He is a humanoid robot more emotional and pissy than most, mostly due to the fact that the Deity he was born beside wants nothing to do with him. She actively ignores him, stubbornly never explaining why she wants nothing to do with their bond. Holly, she knows nothing about their world. Everything she knows has been preached to her in the Second Beings' Congregation, a cult built underground to escape the sickness plaguing the world. She thinks she's happy. She thinks she's okay. Her voices, two mysterious figures of wisdom, say otherwise. As the world decays from divine radioactivity, these three "soulmates" are tasked with the impossible: placating the ancient feuds between bitter, temperamental, and hostile Deities set on ripping each other's throats out.

Many years ago, Joseph V. McCarthy dreamed a revelation that shattered his world-view and altered his life direction forever. After nine years as a correctional officer in the prison system, Joe left for a monastic life at Tarrawarra Abbey in Victoria, Australia. He lived as a monk for six years, immersed in a life of spiritual contemplation. During this time, he was introduced to “A Course in Miracles”. It’s message of divinity as a tangible force in the world prompted Joe to reflect on its presence in the wider community beyond the cloister. Joe left the monastery and eventually became a training officer for emergency services in a rural/tourist area. While engaged in lost person searches; flood, cliff and car crash rescues; and more, he witnessed tragic misfortune and miraculous survival. His eyes were opened to the fragility of this precious life. In his role as a spiritual director, and later as pastoral carer in a hospital, Joe realised the deep longing in all human hearts for spiritual meaning and peace. He was inspired to write ‘Our Eternal Relationship’, which shares the key insights and contemplations that were so transformative in his journey. From prison officer to monk to emergency rescuer to pastoral carer for the sick and dying, Joseph V. McCarthy has not flinched from witnessing life’s darkest pits of despair. He believes, “There is not a person in this world who does not deserve our sympathy,” and he offers simple steps towards a life of spiritual integrity and contribution, free of religious dogma.

T W O M E N To see two men together – working, walking, talking, eating, embracing, at play or simply sitting or standing side by side – is to experience a certain physical tension that is unique to the male. This tension manifests itself by way of an altogether compelling combination of strength and vulnerability. From the first, men have been assigned the role of leader, provider, decider, protector, instigator, fighter and wooer. These attributes have been thrust upon them since childhood –attributes that little boys barely understand or know what to do with. To be a child is difficult enough. To suddenly be told that boys don’t cry and that they must be strong and that they have special responsibilities that must be developed throughout their lives is, to say the very least, daunting. I myself recall being subjected to parental prodding that insisted on certain kinds of behavior, mainly directed away from the behavior of little girls. How to deal with this pressure is every little boy’s dilemma. In school, we boys get a belly-full of boy-behavior. It’s a rough world out there – in the classroom, in the halls and in the schoolyard. But a lot of us relish the sensation, of boy-power and gleefully embrace it. Others of us observe it all and keep our own counsel. The quieter boys among us look forward to a less boisterous or less aggressive manhood. Yet all of us will continuously and forever be subjected to what the world, itself subject to chaos and confusion, thinks a man should be. Thus it is that so many boys, when they reach manhood, offer a poignant portrait of emotional strength and frailty – the inborn or learned “manly” qualities of stoicism and self-confidence in perpetual conflict with an equally persistent sense of uncertainty, innocence and bewilderment. In this book, I offer a glimpse of some of these qualities in men from many walks of life. My aim in these photographs is to capture a wide gamut of professions as well as revealing men unafraid to show their deep love and affection for each other. Too, I wanted to show what men look like, how they interact and how they see themselves and each other. I tried to provide a perspective into the awkward logic of their psychological makeup. Given that they owe their existence to that mystery known as WOMAN, I also wanted to offer a vision of man as a lone, perhaps happily liberated, traveler in a world bereft of women. Mostly, however, I wanted to celebrate male togetherness as a very positive and quite beautiful force – a moving and comforting fact of life that is by no means the whole truth for everyone.

At a moment of incredible change and profound disruption, all of us are examining our lives and delving into the meaning of our journey. Through a global pandemic, economic upheaval, and fundamental adjustments in our way of life, each of us are looking for how to navigate the rapids and bends as we move forward in discovery with a desire for connection. Taking us along on his own journey with its ups and downs, renowned thought leader Matthew Dowd presents Revelations on the River: Healing a Nation, Healing Ourselves, an inspirational book of his revelations on key questions and lessons he learned that apply to each one of us. Through an examination of steps in his own personal story along with lessons learned from world leaders in history encompassing spirituality and politics, he reveals both practical and spiritual epiphanies that are applicable to each of us as we struggle to discover the truth in a troubled world. Revelations on the River visits key topics like love, fears and trauma, forgiveness and reconciliation, faith and science, interconnection, and legacies. This examination of values that bind us together and that can lead us to a more enlightened place is an opening for contemplation for not only our own individual worlds, but for those who want to lead in the larger communities and world we all inhabit.
