The Five People You Meet In Heaven

I absolutely loved this book. It really made me stop and think for a moment how we affect those around us, sometimes in ways we don't know. This is a book about discovery both of ourselves and of those around us.

Eddie lived a long life but he sees it as an uneventful life. He never became all that he dreamed he would be, he felt he never really lived or made a difference in the lives of those around him. On his 83rd birthday he is tragically killed in an amusement park accident. In the after life he meets five people, these five people show how he  and they affected each other in someway. They also show him that sometimes something as simple as a smile can make all the difference to a person.

I really encourage everyone to read this book. When they are done to think about the people that have come and gone in their loves and wonder whose day they might have made just a little brighter.
