from Your Lot and Parcel · host Benjamin Diaz/James B. Flaherty, Beloved Public Speaker & Award-Winning Author

He says, “I know I should not feel guilty. But here I am, (I will be 90 in September 2025), happy, healthy, quite sure I will not wake up on the wrong side of the grass tomorrow. And every day is a miracle, another opportunity to produce, create, learn, and hopefully do something good for myself and others. On top of that, I have no regrets, no sad memories that did not spring from great happiness. Why was I given this gift? I thank my creator every day and know tomorrow will be superb.Even if you are perfect—Living, Giving, loving—someone you know, and love needs the friendly advice found in EMBRACE YOUR AGE. You can be better than ever. I really believe that friends. Every day is a miracle. I want you to feel that joy every morning and know that someone will think of you today. Living is a gift, an opportunity to contribute, produce and share. EMBRACE YOUR AGE will also illuminate your self-doubts and insecurities with some direct calls to action.Imagine the honor of being able to live and work within your passion. That is my life. Besides earning a living at the keyboard, I have had the absolute joy of creating three books. The first two are novels—birth, death, romance, sex, Broadway, travel, marriage, divorce, high and low life, wonderful stories to curl up with or enjoy someday on the big screen or TV. And more recently, a non-fiction book that speaks directly to Dear Old Friends, and lovingly, but pointedly, reminds them that today is the oldest & youngest they will ever be.He is the author of "LOVING LONGEVITY: Make your next years your best years." https://www.jamesbflaherty.com/http://www.yourlotandparcel.orgSupport the show
