“Flying with Broken Wings” – The Book
365 Ways to Turn Every Challenge into an Opportunity
In Memory of Eden Zacharia (of Blessed Memory)
Book Summary
Allow me to ask the million-dollar question: Terrorists murdered my daughter—that is a fact. They are guilty of her death. But are they in charge of my happiness?
The answer is no.
If I wake up every morning bitter and blaming, I am allowing them to kill me again and again, every single day.
A bereaved parent cannot “come to terms” with the reality that their child will never return. It’s simply impossible. The relentless attempt to do so is a sure recipe for losing one’s sanity.
I will never be able to accept Eden’s death.
But I can face the fact that today—just today—I will not see Eden.
“Just for Today” is a simple yet powerful tool from the wide toolbox of the 12-Step Program, and it is the one I share with you in this book.
I promise you that if, each day, you walk in the light of just one sentence from this book, you will experience a life of happiness that depends on no person and no external circumstance.
Crises, negative emotions, and the loss of a loved one are part of life. Yet remember—you are not condemned to live in constant suffering because of them. It is possible and even allowed to feel pain, sadness, helplessness, and fear—and at the same time, to be happy and undefeated.
I wish you happiness and peace like you have never known before.
With love,
Orin
