Surrendering and Opening to Hope in Times of Crisis

When Anna-Zoe Herr's father passed four years ago, she grappled with almost unbearable pain and grief and was finding it difficult to find hope. One night, she had a dream in which her father appeared, sitting opposite her. 

"I came back because you have a question for me," he said. Zoe was taken aback and then said quickly, "Yes, I do. How do I overcome your death?" "You don't overcome my death," her father replied. "You just love." Taking this injunction to heart, Zoe's path deepened towards love, towards hope and imagination even amidst despair.
