THE AUTHOR MEANS IT WHEN HE SAYS YOU CAN BE BETTER THAN EVER. Embrace Your Age isn't as sweet & forgiving as its predecessor, DEAR OLD FRIENDS. Mr. Flaherty, who says he's an optimistic 87-year-old-going-on-60, nails your self-doubts and insecurities whether you're 50, 60, 70, or 80+, with some direct calls to action. Besides acknowledging your bathroom mirror as your most meaningful psychiatrist, Flaherty makes you confront your toughest critic--yourself--and gives you the emotional ammunition and point of view that will help you wake up on the right side of the grass tomorrow, with a smile and a purpose. He challenges you to summarize your life in a six-word statement. For himself, he says: I am present--Living, Giving, Loving. You'll find wisdom, loving guidance, a few honest laughs, and Did He Really Say That? in this easy-to-read shot of adrenalin. This isn't just another one of those smile and the whole world smiles with you books. Every chapter (and they're not lengthy or overly wordy) asks a question, and most are going to make you think. For example: Why do you exist? Do you think you're a little weird? Do you think you're old? How are you going to handle it when they die? Jim, (I know him well enough to use his first name) was thinking of You when he wrote this book. You'll find it's very personal. He, personally, has had a hell of an interesting life. Self-made, a corner office MadMan in NYC, even four years abroad, while raising two children (who still enjoy him), grandsons from Japan to Brooklyn, and almost too many friends. He tells them, "straighten up, get your act together, stop whining, we all have things to do." At 87 he's still writing every day, has preached at his church, is a public speaker . . .and a terrific joke teller. You'd like him. And you'll learn something about getting more out of yourself when you read EMBRACE YOUR AGE--You can be better than ever.
