The book deals with such pithy issues as: -Why life gives you all the lessons you need-How grief can be good for you-Why work is essential to our psychological health-What mid-life crisis means for youWe are all searching for healthier, happier, more satisfying lives, but it's the journey that matters, not the destination.
