This book is a treasure, to be savored and kept close all your life. Not only did I love this book, but my husband was so crazy about it that he would read aloud passages to me while I was trying to get to sleep. He purchased hardcopies for his son and for himself, and continues to talk about it to anyone who will listen. Quiet and lovely, enriching and poignant. That is this book.

An excellent book~ Sonny Brewer has a beautiful style of writing....almost like poetry itself. A great book on self discovery and learning how to come to terms with ones own mortality and finding the joy in living as well as the peace in dying.
