Currently I’m reading Life Lessons: Two Experts on Death and Dying Teach Us About the Mysteries of Life and Living.

I am enjoying it immensely. I think I’m going to gift it to several friends for their birthdays or Christmas who would also appreciate it. I promise to say more about it when there is more time. I find parts of it profound. I like the way it is presented. I don’t always agree, but mostly I do. I wish my own life came with an instruction manual. I would like to take this book’s advice to heart, but there are no definitive answers, just a sense that where we are on the path is OK for each of us.

There is very little about death in the book. It is about living and finding our lessons among several broad topics such as love, relationships, and etc.

I like books like this that are inspirational in a deep way, that order large ideas in a way that is understandable, that make me think, that challenge where I am and where I’m going — and why.

Not light stuff, but relatively easy reading.

What are you reading? Have you read this book? Do you like books like these?
