Now What? Time to Wake Up!

February 2, 2013 by cindyspursuits

There was a time in my early widowhood, where I thought I was in control of my grief. I found ways not to feel the pain. I was successful for a short period of time. There was always that “instant gratification” of having a drink to numb the pain. This wasn’t a very good long term plan. Eventually, I found myself out of control.

My story can be read on-line at NOW WHAT? in the February issue. Find out what happened to my daughter that caused me to stop my destructive behavior and surrender to God.

Cindy Adams and Daughters, Jessica & Nicole

I was widowed at 34 years of age, with 2 young daughters, 6 and 7 years old. After raising my daughters, and pursuing a second career, I've recently remarried and wrote a book on my grief journey and beyond. My purpose for writing my memoir, "A Widow's Pursuit", is to encourage other young widows, that life goes on as we make new and joyful memories. We all have a different grief journey but we can help and encourage each other to persevere through grief and pursue new dreams!
