Is this the epitaph you would like on your gravestone? Lived, Loved, Laughed is different to other pop psychology books, which pursue happiness, love and success. This book has the unique perspective of awakening its readers from a deadening sleep of habit, stress, over work or bad relationships to seeing what they really want in life. This 'Eureka' moment of awakening happens through reading about true and shocking stories of other people's critical and traumatic or near death experiences - but it only works for a moment before existential anxiety returns them to that sleep again. Lived, Loved, Laughed then helps its readers take the risk of daring to love and live a happier, more meaningful and purposeful life."
