It's my sincere hope that my book "The Sisterhood of Widows" will encourage you to choose independence over dependence ... to free yourself from grief... and to choose, above all, to live your life with purpose and passion rather than fearful caution.

The only way we can achieve independence is to exchange our wishful thinking for purposeful action. Which means you're going to have to make a tough decision to step out of your comfort zone... take a calculated risk... and go for it.
