Dr. Greiff has distilled more than wisdom in this treasure chest of spiritual guidance. He illustrates by way of childrens' insights, gentle everyday metaphors and incisive quotes. Although other reviews have lambasted the self-help nature of this book--and compared him to pretenders in this realm--the good doctor has transcended the genre. He's provided nothing less than a loving guidebook to mortality.

While the general premise of Legacy was good, there was no beginning, middle or end. Whatever good points there might have been are lost in self-centered and pedantic lecturing. Dr. Greiff seems to be more interested in hearing himself talk, than giving anyone a real idea of how to build a legacy.

I'm so surprised it's rate so bad and sell so little in USA. I come from Taipei and read in Chinese edition. When I first met it in book store . I feel like i finally find the home . i need to stop to look at my self almost every page. i check out how did I spend my days? how did I look at myself? How did I think to be alive. i'm glad I know I'm not lonly to against the main stream conception-- most of people think job and money is everything. i'm glad to know ya, I'm in the right way. I enjoy to be a human being. even I live in Taipei-- full of purlution and speed creazy. But I know i just need to continue to involve myself to this wonderful world.

i couldn't put this book down in 3AM even I need to wake up early. Through it , I don't feel I need to work hard to be a better person, I just need to share.

I immediately bought 5 more for my friends . I think it's better than to go to a doctor. It'll help them to get over the self pitty and find their own livling value.

If you just think about yourself, you'll think the life is so hard, just turn your eyes to others, then you'll know there's so much to do for others than yourself.
