"You have 1440 chances to make life worthwhile every single day." -- Cliff McKenzie. Life's wisdom's are clearest when you're about to die. These podcasts are reflections of a 77 year old combat correspondent, who was dying of stage IV COPD. In his hospice situation he reflected on the philosophies and experiences necessary to best juggle life's many obstacles, from emotional to physical. His subjects focus on the 1440 minutes each of us has as a daily gift to succor life, or if we are misdirected in our thinking, to wallow in fear, disillusionment, and self-incrimination. In listening to these podcasts you will find rungs of a moral ladder that you can climb out of any morass you experience, so that you can see the beauty of life rather than its ugliness.
