Posted - Sep 10 2006 : 11:11:20 AM At 51 years young this book spoke to me like no other. By happenstance although having bought the about a year ago, I had tucked it away. When packing for a trip to the beach I came upon it when looking for reading material in my book pile and added it to my bag...only to realize the author was also 51 when 'living' this book and the book begins and ends at her beloved ocean. Not that you have to be 51 and lying on the beach when reading this book but both of those together made it almost a life changing experience for me. 'Profound'...it changed me. It will forever make you take note of the dash(-) between the year of our birth and the year of our death and how that - speaks volumes!

XOXO, Libbie
