A book on death and dying, and life after death. This is my last book, and I think my "best book" to date. Of course, most authors think that their current publication being their "best" so far. But I think that this is my "best book" because I earnestly believe that I was "inspired" to write it. Many months ago, I started to notice my inspiration when I was sleeping. Unlike some writers who're more creative at dark hours, I never wrote anything at night due to my poor vision. But many new ideas just popped up into my nightly dreams as if someone was speaking to me while I was sleeping, telling me what to write and what not to write. My bursts of inspiration continued for many months, and during some nights I even woke up and had to jot down some key points before I could go back to sleep again. I noticed that my inspiration also began to happen during the daytime. Sometimes as soon as I turned on the television or switched the channel I was watching, I became instantly inspired by a word or a phrase that was said at that very moment. I believed that God was inspiring me. So, through my daily prayers, I also began to ask God to continue to inspire my writing. When I began to tell those close to me that I was writing a book on "your death", their immediate response was: "How gross " If my book were to focus on "how" you're going to die, it could indeed be "gross" because you're living in a world rampant with natural disasters and physical violence. But my book focuses on your "positive" aspects of living before you die: WHO you can become-a person of love and connection with others; HOW you can live longer-if you wish to extend your existence; WHAT you can do with yourself-before you exit from this world; WHERE you will go when you actually die-somewhere or nowhere. Your "death and dying" is a fact of your life-not something "gross" to avoid or to talk about. This is my last book because I'm growing older. If I continue to survive, I'll spend the rest of my life reviewing and revising some of my books published decades ago. Stephen Lau
