Life is a Gift by Gary Ezzo
Almost everyone would say one of their foremost desires is to live a meaningful, worthwhile life. But, what does that mean? How much time do we really spend finding the answers to the most important questions in life? We've all heard how people confronted by death do some profound thinking about life and often have great insights to share. In candid interviews, terminal patients in the Alive Hospice program talked with authors Bob and Judy Fisher, addressing some of these important questions. These end-of-life ponderings are collected into inspirational and provoking thoughts that will encourage the reader to live life fully. Each story is reflected in thematic chapters-priorities, family, simple pleasures, romance, integrity, regret, forgiveness-crafted into a series of "lessons learned," offering motivation to approach life with more vigor. These powerful stories deliver the clear message that if you wait to really live until you know you are going to die, you risk missing much of the joy life has to offer and the chance to leave a positive legacy.
Robert Fisher has been a university professor, dean, academic vice president, and has served as president of Belmont University in Nashville for the past six years. Judy Fisher has filled the roles of mother, Middle School science teacher, and currently, the campus-wide coordinator of interior construction and external landscaping/lighting at Belmont University.
