Kitten Heels Recommends....

I enjoy books! I mean really enjoy them! I could spend entire days in a library or a book store. I used to think that I should have become a librarian or book store manager. But I don’t want to help other people find books, or look up info, I want to browse, read and repeat. I actually like the smell of libraries. I don’t think I’ll ever get a Kindle. It was during one of my library trips that I found the first book that I am recommending. The title was so provocative that I had to pick it up. It is titled One Month to Live: 30 Days to a No-Regrets Life by Kerry and Chris Shook. I almost left it, because I thought it would be a sad account of someone’s last month of life. The subtitle is in smaller print. I’m so glad that I did pick it up because it is a book about life. Living life! I was so excited that I recommended it to everyone that I knew. The ladies of this blog decided to read the book and have a discussion about it. For many of us it was life changing. Here is the product description:

What if you only had one month to live? How would you make each day meaningful? How would you relate to others differently? What would you do to make the rest of your life really matter?

With eye-opening insights and soul-inspiring truths, One Month to Live will challenge you to embrace the life God has entrusted to you and you alone, and to live it out moment by moment with wholehearted authenticity, honesty, and integrity.

Each chapter overflows with inspiring quotations, colorful true stories, and questions for reflection. The four sections, which can be read over four weeks, help you examine the core areas inside you that long to be exercised and expressed: how you’re made to live passionately, love boldly, learn from your mistakes, and leave a legacy that endures for generations after you’re gone. Complete with uplifting action points, each of the thirty chapters–one per day in a life-changing month–offers you fresh strategies for overcoming habits that mire you in mediocrity.

Open yourself to the challenge of embracing your mortality and being empowered to live each day engaged in being fully alive.
