DESCRIPTION:
Along the way, he finds universal themes in Jewish traditions while inviting readers to appreciate their own spiritual, professional and interpersonal gifts that have made their lives more meaningful.. He gives us, in his poetic prose, a generous gift about living, giving and loving. We are less alone in the world than we sometimes believe. Though from a humble beginning, he went on to help build Los Angeles into a luminous metropolis. There are people in our lives who show their concern for us by giving us gifts that may not immediately reveal their importance. I’m in love with this elegant book. With this memoir, Jerrold Felsenthal thanks the family members, friends and colleagues whose generosity was designed to give him the brightest possible future. He recognizes both the givers and the profound personal influence of these gifts in all of their life-changing forms. His life tales will fill you with joy and hope. "Jerry’s memoir is Tuesdays with Morrie set in Beverly Hills. Acts of kindness after a sudden death in the family, mentorship across a career in real estate, and whispered advice on the power of listening and respect are just some of the things for which this author expresses gratitude. I laughed and cried reading it in one sitt
Soulful, funny, with tons of business and everyday advice for appreciating what others have done for you. An uplifting read that gets you thinking about who and what you should be grateful for. ALSO has smart entrepreneurial tips and real estate development secret sauce that's useful for developers or anyone trying to raise capital. I happen to love Los Angeles history and inspiring stories about refugees from WWII. This memoir offered all that, plus the kind of funny and warm insights you'd get from your grandfather when you're out fishing together or kicking back with a beer.
