In the brief Epilogue, Harper reminds readers that brokenness can be a gift, one that can forever change our outlook on own lives and on the lives of all around us. By deliberately pursuing healing, we can recover from our wounds, whatever they may be. Harper quotes Hazrat Inayat Khan, as in her Introduction, this time citing the following passage: “There can be no rebirth without a dark night of the soul, a total annihilation of all that you believed in and thought that you were” (278).
