    Which Path 55 Life Lessons was conceived on a hospital bed, and thankfully, the lessons in this book and I did not succumb to my injury, which could have quickly happened. Spending three weeks in a hospital caused me to reflect on my accomplishments and, more importantly, the mistakes and failures I made due to being uninformed. I promised myself, if I made it out of the hospital, I would do everything I could to educate people about life and the trickery that patiently looms. The lessons in this book come from real-life experiences. These teachings encompass "financial awareness that is required before signing a payment note, recognizing irrational relationship behaviors, and how to answer crafty questions without trapping yourself." There are a total of 55 lessons (and a few bonus lessons) that the reader is sure to walk away with a newfound awareness and preparedness after reading this book.

    These are a few of the author's favorite chapters from the five star rated dark humor thriller by Todd Curry and Christopher Abbott. The voice over characters in this audio version were actually performed by the authors themselve. During a recent PODCAST in Miami, Author Todd Curry was asked to give an analogy of there recent work." I can compare these stories to...

    The Wild West has made legends out of many men after their deaths, but like Wild Bill Hickok, Jesse James was a celebrity during his life. However, while Hickok was (mostly) a lawman, Jesse James was and remains the most famous outlaw of the Wild West, with both his life of crime and his death remaining pop culture fixtures. Eventually James, his brother and their infamous gang became the most hunted outlaws in the country, but Jesse would famously be done in by the brother of his most trusted gang members. After Jesse moved in with the Ford brothers, Bob Ford began secretly negotiating turning in the famous outlaw to Missouri Governor Thomas Crittenden. On April 3, 1882, as the gang prepared for another robber, Jesse was famously shot in the back of the head by Bob Ford as he stood on a chair fixing a painting. While conspiracy theories have continued to linger that somehow James was not killed on that day, the Ford brothers would celebrate their participation in his murder, Bob himself would be murdered a few years later, and Jesse James’s legacy had been ensured. 
    Alongside Jesse James, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid were two of the most notorious outlaws of the west. The duo had a full-fledged gang known as the Wild Bunch conducting robberies in the Southwest, and they became legendary for their shootouts and their escapes from the law. Eventually, Butch Cassidy and his most famous acquaintance fled as far east as New York City and as far south as Argentina.  
    With a wit as quick as his trigger, Billy the Kid had a bullet and a wisecrack for every man he killed, and his notoriety only grew when exaggerated accounts of his actions in Lincoln County eventually earned The Kid a bounty on his head. There was plenty of gunplay in the outlaw’s life to help him become a well known if not celebrated figure in the West, but the legendary and controversial nature of his death has also helped him endure.

    REVIEW 
    5.0 out of 5 stars If you feel alone in your suffering, this is the book to hold. 
    Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2022 
    Verified Purchase 
    Somehow, Michael has been able to take the most searing loss and transform it into words that bless, comfort and inspire. Two other resources help me with grief: the movie: What Dreams May Come and the CD/book, Graceful Passages. When She Died stands powerfully beside these masterpieces. It brings understanding, order, and compassion to the unthinkable, shocking and unbearable nature of loss. 
    Mish's words are eloquent, and cut to the core nature of sorrow without trite religious platitudes, psychological jargon, or a hint of falsehood. One receives a road map through the horrific shock of loss, and a steady guide to light your way. 
    The writing is clean and clear. Even if you're not currently dealing with a fresh grief, reading Michael's intimate reactions will touch and teach. 
    It is not maudlin or cloying. When She Died is clean, clear and clarifying. Furthermore, its a "page turner." 
    Couldn't put it down. Read in one sitting.
