WELL LIVED: SHAPING A LEGACY OF GRATITUDE AND GRACE

WELL LIVED: SHAPING A LEGACY OF GRATITUDE AND GRACE by Sally Clarkson

How many of us feel that we are living a life that is "Well Lived?" How many of us desire this with the deepest part of our hearts, and yet, the days just slog together and run by in an endless race of getting everything done? If you want to take the exit ramp off the expressway of the fast forward life, but aren't sure how, this book can give you some great direction!

Have you ever stopped to think about how many wonderful older folk try to speak into the lives of the younger generation? They're on the down side of the Hill of Life evaluating the areas they feel they got it right in and areas that they wish they could change. Their words are often full of wisdom, because they recognize the value of the things in life that truly matter. I always loved when my grandparents would share with me what they had gleaned in life especially after I became a mother. That's what I would equate Well Lived to. It helps us focus on purposeful living both in our families and with the people we come in contact with in life.

Sally invites us into her world in Oxford. While it's clear that Sally is still busy in life when she's in Oxford, there's no doubt it's become a place that she does a lot of reflecting. We get the benefit of that in Well Lived. Reading the book is like sitting down across from her with a cup of tea at a cozy little table and hearing all the treasures of knowledge she has gained over the years. It's priceless, and it can help you change the trajectory of your life.
