Incredible book!

This book is a meditation in living! There is much insight and wisdom in each page. I have read this book several times over and keep going back to it. Like the comfort of sharing time with a good-friend, this book deserves to be invited in. The author is a gift in his prose!

An important, moving book that instructs and comforts.

An important, fearlessly honest, moving book. Each page instructs, comforts and, possibly, breaks your heart, as those for whom it was written too late come to mind. The message couldn't be simpler; yet the cultural refusal to hear it is both complex and insidious. Mr. Sharp has cut through it like a hot knife through butter, presenting us with an unexpected fork in the road and loving direction to the path of healing and calm. If you know someone who is dying, or plan on it yourself someday, read this book, own this book
