DIED WITHOUT WARNING - A...

Terrance McDuffie

Died Without Warning is a powerful memoir of survival, faith, and purpose after a life-altering medical crisis. 
When retired U.S. Army veteran SFC Terrance McDuffie suffers a sudden Widowmaker heart attack during a routine workout, his life changes in an instant. With no warning and no time to prepare, his heart stops — forcing him to confront mortality and the hidden toll years of service, stress, and responsibility can take on the body and mind. 
Against overwhelming odds, Terrance survives a medical event that most people never return from. But survival is only the beginning. 
In this deeply personal story, he takes listeners through the moment everything stopped, the long and uncertain road to recovery, and the spiritual awakening that followed. Along the way, he reflects on resilience, identity, faith, and the meaning of a second chance at life. 
Honest, raw, and deeply inspiring, Died Without Warning offers hope to veterans, survivors, caregivers, and anyone facing an unexpected life-altering event. 
It is a reminder that even in the darkest moments, purpose can still be found — and every sunrise is a second chance.

Walden Version 2

Henry David Thoreau

Walden (first published as Walden; or, Life in the Woods) is an American book written by noted transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings.  The work is part personal declaration of independence, social experiment, voyage of spiritual discovery, satire, and manual for self-reliance.  First published in 1854, it details Thoreau's experiences over the course of two years, two months, and two days in a cabin he built near Walden Pond, amidst woodland owned by his friend and mentor Ralph Waldo Emerson, near Concord, Massachusetts. The book compresses the time into a single calendar year and uses passages of four seasons to symbolize human development. - Summary by Wikipedia
