About the Book

For more than a decade, I have answered the question, "How are you?" with the words, "It's the best day of my life." Reactions vary: "Wow! I love that attitude?" "Really?" "Did you win the lottery?" "Are you divorced?" "So far, eh?" "I really can't believe that!" "What about your wedding day?" "Don't you get tired of saying that?" To this last response, I reply, "Don't you get tired of saying, "Fine"?One woman was incensed that I would claim today as my best day instead of the day I got married or the days when our children were born. However, I explained that my wife would rather have me cherish her today than pretend that I'm college age! In fact, I love her more today than I did then. And I loved my children when they were born, but I celebrate them today.This book refuses to believe that anyone's life doesn't matter. Readers who have faith, no explicit faith, or whose religious experience is nominal will find this book inviting. Topics include things like living brilliantly with the strengths one has, being thankful for simple things, knowing when it's time to quit, loving oneself, making peace with one's humanity, helping others, and maintaining an attitude of respect for those one disagrees with to name a few. Each brief chapter intends to help readers make peace with today, celebrate wonder, and confront despair.
About the Author: Grant McDowell writes the blog bestdaynews.ca. He formerly wrote a newspaper column that critiques the news in light of traditional values and faith. He has contributed two dozen articles to journals and magazines. Through serving the Chamber of Commerce, the Food Bank, and a variety of other organizations, he has come to respect the diversity of a free society. Still, he is convinced that timeless values and principles give foundation and form to communities. He explores these principles in this book. Grant has been recognized as a Citizen of Distinction and a Citizen of the Year by one of the communities he calls home. He received the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for spiritual leadership in that community. Serving alongside business leaders motivated him to complete a Doctor of Ministry degree, focusing on the principles of living one's faith in the context of the marketplace. Grant lives with the love of his life--his best friend and wife Donna. They have three wonderful children and one amazing son-in-law.
