eldiente's review against another edition
5.0
As a long-time member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, I consider myself well-informed about its doctrinal and theological teachings. This short book, written in 1995, reminded me of things I knew and inspired me about things I thought I understood. The author is currently the leader of the Church and this book was written a decade before being widowed. He draws upon his professional experiences as a practicing medical surgeon and his study and thinking about death and its relation to living here and now. In the years since publication, the author would experience losses of family members and colleagues. The inspiring tone of the book is poignant given these losses. I appreciate the reflection this book invited.

"Today we have a little more time to bless others--time to be kinder, more compassionate, quicker to thank and slower to scold, more generous in sharing, more gracious in caring. Since happiness is the object of our existence, taking time to smell the roses is advisable. Joy is a journey, not a destination."
This is a gentle compilation about death and morning.
I suppose most people don't really know the story of Caroline Grant, wife of Jedidiah Grant and how her baby daughter died. It's worth reading before you read the book.

Provides a LDS perspective on death and morning. A good read for someone who's lost someone or if you have a few questions.
