Dad, get to Andy's house right way!
Why?
I don't know, but I think it is going to be bad!
Life can make some sudden turns and twists. One of the worst in life is the death of a child. Parents should not have to bury their children. That is not the order of life and death. In this book you will read about the grief and trauma that losing a child can bring to a father. That type of trauma is magnified when the death is caused by mental illness that ends in a son taking his own life. How does one respond to such a tragic event? The Archetypes Attend a Funeral is one father's story of how he is navigating the turbulent waters of the Ocean of Grief. Using the language of archetypal imprints and his faith, this father will introduce you to nautical markers he is using to carry him through the never-ending beating of trauma and the constant waves of grief.
David has spent the last 35 years writing about, caring for, speaking to, and providing tools to leaders and followers who are navigating their own struggles, conflicts, and trauma. He has not only studied these topics, but he has also experienced his own traumatic events to draw both knowledge and empathy. Having written four books on archetypal theory, he never imagined he would be writing a fifth book applying that knowledge to grief caused by his son's suicide. This event, however, only deepened his faith and his understanding of the power of archetypes in one's life. He is praying these brief words can navigate you through grief you are experiencing, and/or prepare you to help others do so, as well.
