Publisher's Summary
If Martians were to visit Earth, would they be perplexed to find that some folks need a reminder to celebrate each year of their lives? Do you mark your date of birth with cake and a bit of frivolity? Do you spend any quiet time on your birthdays to reflect on the life path you have taken thus far? Do you eagerly anticipate and map out the trajectory of the next year and all the subsequent years of your life?
Would our interplanetary buddies wonder why many of us think we cease to grow as we exit our teen years or why we dread aging and fear dying?
You will likely enjoy this audiobook if you:
- Feel a smidgen of unease about aging and dying
- Want to see if worms and chickens can teach life lessons
- Are interested in what fellow life travelers say about growing up, aging, and dying
- Wish to explore cutting-edge research and innovative theories regarding various aspects of our life cycle
- Want practical, fun ideas to celebrate every age and phase of life to get your party started!
The author considers herself an expert “dier” due to a few near-death episodes which didn’t involve any cool out-of-body stuff, but did kindle a lot of interesting ideas and questions about why we think what we think regarding each phase of our lives. This sometimes-amusing, sometimes-quite-serious book is not about whether there’s an afterlife; it’s about you here and now, filled with many ideas and questions for you to ponder.
In this audiobook, you will be introduced to a variety of perspectives on these and other issues with the intent that by having listened to it, you will live a more examined life. If you are satisfied with your current life path, you will get some cool suggestions for more fun. If, on the other hand, you realize that the story of your life could use some editing , consider these important aspects that you need to address:
- Fear, such as fear of public speaking, loneliness, disasters, fear of growing up, aging, and dying
- Habits, which you have but would rather avoid
- Limitations which keep you from experiencing the fullest, happiest, and most adventurous existence that you can imagine
Join me for an in-depth (never to be mapped again in all of future human history) examination of your amazing life. Let’s get your party started!
