Another dear favorite: "Man's Search For Meaning" by Viktor Frankl, survivor of a Nazi concentration camp.

Wow, right? his reasoning about finding God in sorrow is simply stunning. Highly recommended to anyone at all, and especially those who have suffered loss...

It made a big impression on me, especially after seeing a really graphic film in school the following year. What impressed me the most was when he spoke of waking up in the morning and the person next to him was dead- he, like so many others would go back to sleep. He said that after awhile, that became life around the camp- it was part of daily life, they were beyond mourning and survival was the goal. What is it inside a person that could make them still want to live , despite the fact of being in hell on earth? That amazed me. Not to be judgemental, just a simple comparison: years prior, when the Crash of 1929 hit, people were jumping out of windows because they felt they couldn't go on-for them, the world they knew had ended. Then the camps, with torture and death all around, and these people had the drive to live. It's pretty amazing...
God bless you!
