Fairness doesn't govern life
and death, if it did, no good person would have died young.
For every individual who thinks
of him as waste, lonely and insignificant should read this book. There is no
life insignificant, not even the miniscule of the species. All life intersects
and leaves an impact on others. Death doesn’t just take someone it misses
someone else and in the small distance between being taken and being missed
lives are changed. Threw out life, have there been any situation where you have
no idea why a certain result occurred? Do you think there are any events
from your past that didn’t have a big impact on your life, that potentially had
a big impact on other person’s life? We normally tend to see and live life in
our own perspective yet our decision directly or indirectly shapes the future
of a few individuals. This book has the crux of life and teaches the idea of
death, life and life’s unanswered questions. Mitch Albom writes a fantastic
story that will change everything you have ever thought about life, death and
the meaning of life when we were alive.
Plot: Eddie is a wounded war
veteran, an old man who lives an average life in solitude. His job is fixing
rides in an amusement park. On his 83rd birthday a tragic incident
takes place when he is killed trying to save a little girl from a falling cart.
He awakes in the afterlife and has to meet five different people explaining his
life. With these five different people we dig deep into Eddie’s life from
childhood to his end and learn the significance of each person and their impact
on his life. These vivid individuals teach Eddie 5 important life lessons and
how it shaped Eddie’s life. This is a classic Mitch Albom story, when Important
life lessons are taught in an unconventional yet entertaining manner. The Five
People You Meet in Heaven is a beautiful story and its effect on me is
heartbreaking and heartwarming in equal measures.
