I’m sharing my reading of an excerpt from my latest book, The Wine Diaries: Musings on Divorce Paired With Wine. From Chapter 4, Life Unexpected, I read “What I’ve Learned So Far”. This is one of my favorite essays in the book. I think you will relate to the message that small, compounded moments make up what we call our LIFE. That’s why those moments are so important and even more so than the big, dramatic ones that we anticipate for months or even years.

Reading aloud, my favorite essay, "What I've Learned So Far" It's the small, compounded moments that make up our life. Let's make them joyous! Stop over and listen in…share what you've learned so far in the comments. #Book #audio… Share on X

So, there you have it…a little taste of my new book.

Do you cherish the small moments? What have you learned so far?

    Lovely Lisa! Have you done the audio for this book? If you haven’t, you must. You have a beautiful voice, with clear diction and apt pauses. Thanks for sharing. I had almost forgotten this… a fantastic excerpt. Love and hugs. Would you like to read my poetry? I would love you to do so.

      Thank you so much, Balroop. No, I haven’t done an audio version. Daunting in both price to hire and /or to tackle it myself…but I will also do a video reading soon.

      Absolutely, Balroop. I would be delighted to do a reading of your poetry! Do you mean to post on your blog, similar to what I’ve done here?

        I could post it at Youtube and twitter, even Facebook but let’s do a video reading. Tell me when you are ready.

          Honestly, I think reading on audio only would be much better for highlighting your poetic words. Video may be distracting for the listener. In any case, you can send me the poem you’d like first and I can record audio and video and you can decide which you like better?
