Nora Ephron
In her book I Remember Nothing, the wonderful late Nora Ephron shared the things she will miss as she contemplated toward the end of her life. Nora Ephron invites us to look back and recall the truly special things of our life. Her list also helps us to remember what is important and what is not. Looking back, what are the great moments of your life? Your list is filled with the things that are truly important to you. Perhaps these are the things we need to focus on while we are still alive and able to share them, embracing our values and living our legacy. I want to thank my friend, the talented author Jeannie Dubose, for reminding me of this part of Nora Ephron’s legacy.
