Rating:  Summary: Wonderful, wonderful wisdom from the heart Review: I truly loved this book because it contains so much truth and wisdom about life. The foundation of this loving book is built on the many years of experience that the authors have had with the dying. They speak from the heart like dear friends. They speak the truth on everything from love, relationships, guilt, time, fear, surrender. . . Living an authentic life from the heart is the key to a rich and fulfilling life. I will read this book over and over again.It is especially helpful after a loss in one's life, as I have suffered.
Rating:  Summary: Look no further for a great holiday gift Review: I was very impressed (and saddened) by the ordeal Elizabeth Kubler-Ross went through after her stroke 5 years ago after reading the 'Wheel of Life', and was eager to read this new book of hers that I found at the library. Having experienced the loss of 2 good friends in the past year, it truly had a great message for me that I want to share with all of my friends. Its rare that you find a book that says so much, so well, on a topic that is hard to capture - living a good, meaningful life. As I was reading it, I wished I owned a paperback copy of it so that I could mark it up with my thoughts throughout the different topics/chapters. Kind of like a 'workbook', but also similar to a diary where I could keep track of 'stuff' that the book brought up. Thumbs up to the authors of this great little book.
Rating:  Summary: It's a wonderful book Review: I would recommend this novel to people because,it teaches us about fourteen different lessons and different characters who have gone through different difficulties in life. The problems they have gone through can be related to each and everyone in different situations in our day to day lives. These lessons also teaches us on how to live life,and prepare us on dealing with different situations in life. It shows us how to love, to be strong,to get intouch with ourselves spiritually and physically, belive in ourselves, and live a happy life.
Rating:  Summary: Great wisdom and insight into life's priorities Review: I've had this book checked out of the library for over 8 weeks now and realize that I must own it. By offering an opportunity to sort out the really important issues of living life from the truly unessential aspects of society's expectations of the "good life" it offers great wisdom. Appropriate and relevant reading from any spiritual or pragmatic perspective.
Rating:  Summary: A Tremendous Book on All Aspects of Living A Full Life Review: I've read about 1,000 "self-help" books in the past 15 years. I can honestly say that this slim volume is the best book I've ever read on the importance of living in the now, of forgiving, of being truly present to your life DESPITE the inevitable trials we all face.I cannot recommend this enough. I plan on buying this for everyon on my Christmas list because I thionk that these two have said, it and said it well.
Rating:  Summary: Bullseye! Review: Just finished reading Life Lessons and couldn't agree more with all the previous reviews. Excellant book that everyone should read to help keep a balanced perspective on living everyday life. We will be giving several copies as Christmas gifts this year.
Rating:  Summary: A Profound Wake up Call for the Living Review: Life Lessons is one of those books that EVERYONE should read. It is a call to all of us to live deeper richer lives. Because so many of the thoughts and lessons are taken from individuals who are near death, including author, Elizabeth Kubler Ross, each lesson is deeply inspiring and profound. I work as a hospital chaplain and have read many books on death and dying, but none has captured the wisdom and spirit that those near death offer us in the same way that Life Lessons does.
Rating:  Summary: a valuable book Review: Life Lessons wrote by Elisabeth Kubler - Ross and David Kessler. In this book, the authors guide readers through the practical and spiritual lessons of everyday existence. It teaches us about the mysteries of life and living. Each chapter easily read and is presented as a lesson with a theme such as living authentically, dealing with anger, releasing guilt, facing fear and learning to surrender. The chapters are as powerful on their own as they are if we read them cover-to-cover. It is very useful for our live lives to its fullest. First of all, this book is very easy to understand. The author used a lot of true examples of our lives to explain the definition of the live. For example, meet the car accident, gets the disease, and face the challenge, this situations usually happen and relate to us. The author gives us the advice how to reduce the mental obstructs. They shared their experiences how to deal with the death and dying. Second, in the book, it told us what the most important thing in our lives is. It's live life without regret, without fear, with inner peace. It helps us to set up the plan step by step to build our beautiful future. It helps us see that things happen for a reason. It really touches my emotional source. The author told us learning giving and receiving the love. From this viewpoint, we can realize love is the source of the happiness. Finally, learning forgiveness also is the important part of the book. That is the best way to heal wound. In conclusion, this book is the best book I have read in a very long time. It is a gentle and inspiring book bent on helping the reader move to a more authentic life. I think this is a great book for the reader. Hopefully, you can enjoy this book and learn more life's experiences from it as me.
