Final Grains of SandBy David HarderDescription:
During life, the inevitable decree of death can occur any moment from conception to old age. Regardless of the time of its arrival, death is never uncomplicated and creates a void of vanishing memories for those remaining behind. Book Takeaway:The story had a powerful message about the people we touch through our actions and words Awards:
Why the author wrote this book:Final Grains of Sand found its birth during a conversation with a friend who told me about her father. When she described the man, he seemed larger than life, but at the same time, he had this tremendous influence on his family and friends. I realized we rarely know someone completely. We see facets of the individual from our perspective and often make judgments from our point of view. To know someone completely, we would need to share from all walks of a person’s life and formulate a grander vision. Unfortunately, all too often, we wait until a person dies before we discover who they really were, but then it seems too late. This book wanted to give the reader a behind the scenes view of one man’s life. |
