From your new posts I just realized something - these stages of grief listed on this mug - we don't just go through them when we lose someone we love or when we've been diagnosed with a terminal disease. I've been through them - pretty much in the order listed - when my book failed to publish, when I got married and discovered marriage wasn't exactly what I hoped, when I had to accept living a long distance from family... It surprised this old woman, this former psychology teacher, that the list on the mug pretty much applies to a whole heap of situations!!! Love and prayers to you. Pat
