Overview

I don't mean to alarm you, but you are going to die. So is everyone you love, everyone you've been meaning to call, and everyone you've been meaning to forgive.
Most of us know this. Almost none of us live like it's true.
This book is a wake-up call delivered with dark humor and hard arithmetic: the actual number of visits left with an aging parent, the actual number of books you'll read before you die, the actual size of the window before it closes on the conversation you keep postponing.
Then it gets specific. The unwritten song still living in your head. The unpublished book still sitting in a folder. The uncalled friend, the unspoken apology, the calling you traded for safety one reasonable decision at a time.
And finally, borrowing the Akan principle of Sankofa, it makes the case that it's not too late for most of what you think it's too late for. Some of it, yes. Not most of it.
Fifteen chapters. Sixty reflection questions. A thirty-day plan to actually start. One question underneath all of it: what will still be unfinished when you are?
