Lucky Gal

Well I have recently read the book 'Lucky Man' by Michael J Fox. Pete lent it to me as he is a huge MJF fan.

Anyway, I finished it within a day... it was amazing. It is about Michael J Fox's life and fight with Parkinsons disease, and it was personally touching me as my Pop developed this condition when he was in the late stages of his life.

One of the questions posed in the book, is the question that Michael had to face when he was diagnosed. That question being, You only have 10 more years you can work .... what do you do?

It really makes you stop and think... where am I going? What am I doing? and what life do I want to lead to make sure that I am maximising my time?

I started to think that if I was told the same sentence that I only had 10 working years left, what work would I do. I found out that maybe the answer would be different from the path that I am currently on, and what I currently view as important.

Anyway, it is definately a good book worth reading, and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Hey Mazzy,
just wanted to say hi while I'm on a study break. You and Lil are keeping me sane while I am studying - I am adicted to reading your blogs.
Can't wait to be over there- 10 days to go.
