Description

SHELF LIFE Celebrating Vitality, Embracing Mortality At some point, you will inevitably face the end of your existence in this dimension. Does the thought of your "expiration date" cause you angst or fear? Though seemingly at opposite ends of the spectrum, life and death are inextricably intertwined. Confronting death and seeking a deeper understanding of its implications, challenges, and nuances lends equanimity to the fear of dying and invites us to live vibrantly, grow in unique ways, forge new trails, and discover untapped potential.SHELF LIFE was born of an introspective and interactive graduate-level course on mortality, which the author created and taught at St. Mary’s University in Minneapolis, Chautauqua Institution in upstate New York, and other lifelong-learning organizations. An intimate, engaging memoir, SHELF LIFE is also a lucid guide to thriving in life's Third Act while befriending the inevitable. Read more

    • A Well Thought-Out and Informative Book!
I highly recommend “Shelf Life” if you have an interest in living the rest of your life to the fullest while making friends with your inevitable demise. "Shelf Life" is a thought-provoking, inspiring, and at times humorous book about our vitality (Carpe Diem) and our inevitable mortality (Memento Mori). It is chock-full of wonderfully motivating ideas for how we can live our remaining lives in the best way possible, and how to look at our own mortality with an eye towards being comfortable with the topic, preparing for our inevitable future, what actions we need to take to ensure that we are not a burden for those we leave behind when we die and a myriad of options that I never knew about or had even considered for how I want the end of my end of life to be. I was impressed by the wealth of research that must have gone into writing this book, yet it is presented in such a creative and personal way that I felt I was having this conversation with a close friend! ... show more

Shelf Life….I keep reading and rereading it in various stages of my days and nights. The research, the poetry, the personal stories, the questions, the awe…….all of it leaves me in tears, in joy, in question, in peace, in wonder, and ultimately in a place to ponder peace!!! Norma has written and said it so beautifully. Life is about living!!! Seeking the moments, daring, searching, accepting and being grateful! ... show more

    • Brilliant!
The book is an extraordinary discussion of life and death, written with the comprehensive knowledge of a professor, and the lyrical flourish of a novelist, a pleasure to read. -Don Hall
