the five people you meet in heaven

by Mitch Albom

The story of a man named Eddie, the head maintenance person at Ruby Point Amusement Park. His life's journey doesn't end when he died at the age of 83, its only the beginning of another path that he must take to complete his cycle of life. The novel narrates Eddie's life from the beginning, as the story progress telling what kind of a person he is, thus saving a little girl's life on the account of his. As we follow him waking up realizing that he was in heaven indeed, a succession of five people who are waiting to show him the true meaning, value, purpose of his life. In which each soul has a story to tell, a secret to reveal, a lesson to share, and an unsuspecting connection in Eddie's life.
The novel only shows that between life and death there is a thin line that connects us from the time we are born and from the time we die, that in that line there is a story woven in our own ways we never suspected. A connection of our lives with other people's lives, overlapping and affects in a way we didn't know.

The Four Agreements

by Don Miguel Ruiz

Everything we do is based on agreements we have made - agreements with ourselves, with other people, with God, with life. But the most important agreements are the ones we make with ourselves. In these agreements we tell ourselves who we are, how to behave, what is possible, what is impossible. One single agreement is not such a problem, but we have many agreements that come from fear, deplete our energy, and diminish our self-worth.

1. Be Impeccable With Your Word
Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.

2. Don't Take Anything Personally
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering.

3. Don't Make Assumptions
Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.

4. Always Do Your Best
Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
