Live Like You Were Dying [With CD]

This is a wonderful book on how one should live to realize ones true potential.I ordered four copies as gifts to friends and family members . As I approach my 71st birthday , I have a brand new outlook on how I will spend my remaining years . In essence, GO FOR IT !!!!

More is said in this small book regarding the appreciation of life than any I've ever read. I wish I could afford to purchase one for everyone I know. Since that's not possible, I've recommended it to them; several have made the purchase. Absolutely heart-stirring!

I really enjoyed this book! It toached me emotionaly. It was so real. I learned to live each day as it was my last because everyday is a gift from God and it is up to you to decided what you are going to do with that gift. This is such a great book! "May we live like we were dying"

Since I love this song I bought both books and they are both fantastic! The song book has lyrics from the song and some wonderful inspirational thoughts about life. The companion novel "Live Like You Were Dying: A Story About Living" goes into detail about the story inside the song. It shows the life of the narrator of the song and expands upon what Tim McGraw sings about. (Now every time I hear the song I think about Nathan and his daddy!) Both of these books are wonderful and are great when read together. This song has touched so many people and is becoming a classic.

Very short book, definately a one night read. But so much meaning is within the pages. As you unfold the meaning of life, you are just carried away with this book and can take into context your life as well as others around you. "We are all terminal, some are just lucky enough to know it" is among one of the many very inspirational quotes withing the binding. I would reccomend, great gift idea as well.
