Gives the reader an honest confrontation with death and a resulting confidence, peace of mind, and new zest for life. The book speaks to a rising awareness in our times that death is not a four letter word and deserves to be discussed frankly and dealt with concretely in the daily interactions of people who care about each other. We gain remarkable new mastery over our lives once we come to grips with the certainty and potential immediacy of our deaths.

Just what I needed.,

This review is from: Packing for the Big Trip : Enhancing Your Life through Awareness of Death (Paperback)
This book was referred to me by a friend following the loss of my mother, and I have recommended it to several other friends since reading it. While I didn't agree with 100% of the book's contents, I could accept about 99%--and it spoke to me in a way that the typical sappy support-type books can't even approach. While it's certainly written for people of all faiths--even atheists or agnostics--Christians who enjoy unique theological viewpoints will benefit especially. If your heart needs more than sympathy to deal with the pain of death, this book offers a great deal of wisdom.

This review is from: Packing for the Big Trip : Enhancing Your Life through Awareness of Death (Paperback)
Charlie and his family were personal friends with our family. He wrote this out of the grief of his two boys' death.
Charlie packed for the big trip himself recently and sailed for a distant shore, the victim of ALS.
