Welcome to Litsy!

4 ⭐This book is fantastic. It sounds like John Cena if I‘m beginning to end. It‘s a story about always trying your hardest and that it‘s OK to be different. I love that one of the monster trucks is electric, which is what makes them different from the others but yeah, there‘s still this message of family. This book feels like the author and like someone who spends a lot of time with children.

Glad I‘m not the only one who does this…

A story of living a life to its fullest with love and compassion, even while dying. Author Mitch Albom‘s life takes an unexpected turn when he finds out his favorite college professor is dying of ALS. What was initially a singular visit turns into weekly flights from Detroit to Boston to capture his old professor‘s last lecture on life🤍.

Obviously a bit tear provoking but such good sentiments and reminders to us of what matters in life.

“The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love. And to let it come in.”
His voice dropped to a whisper. "We think we don't deserve love. We think if we let it, we'll become too soft. But love is the only rational act.”

One of our new favorite establishments for wings & beer places the tab in$ide a book 📖 - today, we got Tuesdays with Morrie. Yes, I wrinkled a few political pages I didn‘t agree with and perhaps wrote “ ,la “ on a few… maybe! 😁💙🧢🌊

Thinking that people are supposed to do or be anything other than what they are is like saying that the tree over there should be the sky. I investigated that and found freedom.

Everyone is a mirror image of yourself—your own thinking coming back at you.

#AboutABook #GiftedToYou Bless my mom! She got this one for me. We enjoyed it together as we did all those little golden books of my childhood.

I respect Reeve for his courageous battle with his spinal cord injury and the work he did to raise awareness, esp. in fighting for insurance coverage. As someone who works in physical therapy, I also enjoyed the PT aspect of his memoir. But as a whole, I just felt this was a so-so book. Short, but it jumped around a lot and didn‘t feel very cohesive.
