Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
In days gone by, the community would have gathering places where children and adults listened to elders tell their stories of life's challenges and the meaning they found in life. In lieu of that kind of extended community, the authors offer this book, filled with stories from the edge. Then, like fireside elders, they weave these personal stories into themes, such as living authentically, the importance of play, finding one's power, loving relationships and self-compassion. One cannot say enough about the lasting value of this beautifully written and carefully rendered book. This is your chance to see life from the 20-20 vision of hindsight. In the end what will we value most? Here are some hints: the days we surrendered and became calm, the times we healed that which was broken, and of course all the moments we opened ourselves to love. --Gail Hudson

This book is a healing balm. No one can take control for you, in life you make your choices, be they right or wrong, and at times life with all its twists and turns, can be very hard. Yet inside these pages are people who have lived lives, who are in most cases seriously ill or dying, and the things they have to tell us are rare, full of love, kindness, trust and hope. To overcome the emotions of, bewillderment, anguish, fear is just so inspiring. This book will not make you a better or more deserving person, but in times of self introspection, when you feel that no one can possibly understand, and you feel alone. To read the pages in this book, and meet the people inside, to take what is offered, will give a sense of peace and love.
I used David Kessler's book "The Needs of the Dying" as my guide while my father was ill and it provided my family and I with great comfort. I also highly recommend it for anyone in that situation.
While both these experts are known for their work with death and dying, LIFE LESSONS IS ABOUT LIFE....... LIVING AND LIVING WELL.
Life Lessons has and will continue to aid me with my life, as well as those around me and I believe it will help me to live it more fully and with more appreciation. I have given out many copies as gifts to friends. Every one of them has come back and thanked me again after reading it. It has changed many lives.
about how people have lived the remainder of their lives to the full. Read more
