My journal arrived on the same day my mother died--Christmas Eve. Surprisingly, even in my shock and grief, I opened the package and read the opening pages. In a way, it was replacement guidance for things my mother always wanted me to do, such as focus, make some clear goals, and begin to plan. Today I answered the questions at the beginning and I felt her encouragement. Already, it is a meaningful experience.
On a more practical level, the journal is well-made and high-quality at a fair price...
