The Beauty of What Remains

I probably won’t remember to reread this when I find myself preparing to lose a loved one or having just lost one, but I hope when the time comes, I remember every word of this book. This may be the most beautiful book I have ever read. It has changed the way I think about death. Which in turn makes me think about life and the way I'm living it.

That is a lot of pressure to put on a book. I’m standing by it.

There’s nothing philosophical or even religious about it. It's not a deep devotional type of book. It’s just one rabbi’s stories sprinkled with his advice. And for whatever reason, it spoke to me.
