The purpose of this book is to look at many of our experiences and things which tell us that life is indeed too short and perhaps add a little meaning to some of those things which we may not think about on a daily basis. Finding happiness in life is a goal we all aspire to. Meaning and purpose in life may not always be synonymous with happiness. This book will explore how we can have both. Most of life's real pleasures come in small packages. Meaning and purpose in life are found in strange and wonderful ways and serve to emphasize that life is certainly worth living to the fullest each and every day.
