True inspirational stories about life by fifteen authors who live at "The Landings" in Ft. Myers, Florida.
One of the stories in this book is a story about my wife, Raya, who had a very short but full life. She lived only thirty-seven years but she touched the lives of many people while she was here on earth. Some don’t understand how short life can be. Most of us look to live past our seventies and perhaps well into our eighties and nineties. However, there are no guarantees in life. We must all learn to live life now and enjoy it while we can because our lives can be gone in just a blink of an eye. Now to really be blessed read and enjoy "A Slice of Life."
Excerpt
"Many of us go through life thinking that tomorrow is just another day. We think that we can always see family and friends another time. We put off things until tomorrow. Perhaps we all need to celebrate life now and cherish the good times while we can. Time waits for no one and you can’t put time in the bank. Perhaps we need to get out and “Live. Love, Laugh” a little more and get on with life. The slice of life may be big or small but we need to “Live to our full potential and not waste it.” Somehow I think Raya would approve!"
