No Time Like the Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality by Michael J Fox
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Though my Nonfiction November challenge was a bust where physical reads were, I was on a roll with audiobooks - and this was one of them! 🎧
Truthfully, I normally wouldn’t have selected an option like this, but as we are recently watching The Good Wife (yes, I’m aware its old) and it features a lot of Michael J. Fox, I decided to give this a go! 🚦
I wasn’t sure what I was really expecting to get out of this but I wasn’t disappointed. I enjoyed listening to him talk about his life experiences with Parkinson’s and how he still manages to live life day to day, enjoying the things he wants. He takes the time to slow down and live in the moment. He also loves realistically knowing, one day we’re all going to move on. 💜
I think it’s a good reminder that everyone needs to do that, medical issues or not, because you’re never sure what tomorrow holds and you don’t want to wake up and regret not doing something because you were ‘too busy’. I’m trying to embrace this more so than ever and it’s going to be part of my 2022 mantra, for sure. After the past two years, I think we all deserve the ability to slow down. 🐢
So, all in all; if you’re into listening to a celebrity talk about their life in a way that humanizes them a bit more, than this one is a good choice! 👌🏼
