“Where is the handbook for widows?” Mary Kenyon lamented as she planned a funeral for the beloved husband whose triumph over cancer she chronicled in Chemo-Therapist: How Cancer Cured a Marriage. During the ensuing weeks, as she attempted to make sense of his untimely death, she filled two journals, blogged, and read the inspirational writings of others who had gone down the road of grief before her—authors like C.S. Lewis and Madeleine L’Engle. She eventually found herself studying grief and bereavement in her quest to unearth answers to alleviating the pain associated with profound loss. In the process, she discovered a strength and emotional reserve she didn’t know she had, along with an evolving faith that helped her face the impending loss of an eight-year-old grandson. “In the midst of the darkness of loss, I found light. Admittedly, in those first weeks, it might have been but a single small spark I sensed deep inside of me, but that spark guided me in the twisted, dark journey of grief. As I stumbled over the roots of hopelessness and despair, that light grew to illuminate my path, a path I sometimes felt very alone on. [VidConnect vidp=’70553′ vidn=’0′ vidt=’default’ vidv=’NLd6nM8VrKg’] At some point in the journey I’d turned around, and there was God. “That is grace.” In beautiful prose, touching metaphors and stories, and actual journal entries, Mary Potter Kenyon provides a balm for the grieving soul.

Thursday, Twitchy reported on Jesse Jackson calling Florida an ‘apartheid state’ on Nelson Mandela’s birthday. Now, he has released a statement about the Zimmerman trial.
Here is the entirety of Jackson’s message published on his Facebook page:
Trayvon Martin was a gentleman. He was kind to his friend Rachel Jeantel. This information has been lost in the case. We have Benjamin Crump who states that 1) Department of Justice has to answer whether people can be profiled by private citizens.
2) Stand your ground laws must be amended.
3) Trayvon’s parents have started Trayvon Martin Foundation. Please support and encourage people to join.
He went further, including calling upon President Obama to turn his personal feelings into policy.
