Simple in Nature, Deep in Wisdom
Lessons From Life's End is a series of essays written from the perspective of a dying pseudonymous author named "Sevens" who attempts to deconstruct all the ways we try to build meaning and purpose in our lives.
Inspired by the book of Ecclesiastes and the writings of Existentialism, these essays explore the meaning of life, the precious nature of time, and what it means to live well in this world. This little book is ideal for anyone interested in gaining some wise insights from the light of life's end.

The three simple life lessons that the book gives.
When you have dinner with your family, are you still flipping through your phone? Or are you living in the now and creating new memories? When you eat, are you eating mindlessly? Or are you present and appreciating the taste of each bite? When you watch a movie, are you watching it? Or is that bright glowing television not enough that you need to look at the other bright glowing thing in your hand? So, it is time to make a choice. You can sit back and watch the days come and the days go, wasting an hour here and an hour there, never fully seizing the moment. Or you can truly become aware of the preciousness of time and do your best to redeem every minute of it.
