Yes! I'm done with the book! I knew that I would be enjoying this book even before reading this book. Mitch Alboom is such a wonderful writer.

Through reading Alboom's books, I learned so much about life, and gained some words of wisdom. No matter how much we are unsatisfied with out lives, if we look at our lives as a whole picture, we
