Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 I began visiting six strangers who had lost something in 2015. I was fifty-five years old, and I had lost my marriage after nearly three decades. I was now living alone for the first time. I was the main caregiver for my eighty-six-year-old mother.

#2 I interviewed a variety of people, from the very old to the very young, to find out what life was like for them now. I was surprised to find that every visit raised my spirits.

#3 I had to give up the idea that I knew about life. It was a humbling experience, but also an energizing one. I didn’t have to be the expert or critic, challenging the things they told me. Instead, I let them guide me through the world as they saw it.

#4 I chose six people for my experiment. Frederick Jones, who was eighty-seven when I met him, was a World War II veteran and retired civil servant with a weak heart. He had started every day by giving thanks for another sunrise. Helen Moses, ninety, had found love in a Bronx nursing home. John Sorensen, eighty-nine, had lucked into the sweet spot in the social safety net.
