About the Book

This book is dedicated to older people who refuse to use age as an excuse not to live life to its fullest. Artist and Catholic missionary Father Frans Claerhout said, "God, you have lots of time, I don't. Help me to live before I die." Inspired by this quote, Frans Human wrote Live Before You Die, a vibrant perspective on life that will help older readers love, accept, and make use of every single day. Live Before You Die is a powerful, professional, and fun read that urges us to change our outlook on life as we approach old age. Frans Human insists we should be as determined as ever to treat every day as an opportunity to achieve our goals rather than consider it a passage of time as we wait for death to arrive. With a no-nonsense approach, he provides us with easy lessons on how to efficiently manage health, hygiene, social, and financial concerns without having to rely on others for assistance. He applauds independence and persuades us to have a real purpose in life, and to discover new reasons to get out of bed each morning. Illustrated by a celebrated cartoonist, Live Before You Die is a source of entertainment as well as a guide. It's a treasure worth keeping to constantly remind us that life should never be wasted. As Helen Keller said, "Life is either a daring adventure or nothing." And in the end, says Human, the choice is entirely ours.
About the Author: W. A. Frans Human DCom holds a master's degree in tax and a doctorate in commerce. After retiring as a director and partner with an international firm of certified public accountants, he began a second career in the travel industry. Frans Human is concerned that some of his fellow senior citizens have the false perception that they are too old to carry on living a meaningful life and becoming dependent on others too soon. In Live Before You Die Frans Human addresses this perception and shares his knowledge and experience on subjects ranging from finances, contracts and agreements to exercises of the brain and social life. Living in Pretoria in South Africa, the author is passionate about the wild, is a golf enthusiast and is practically involved in social and charitable activities involving the aged and orphaned children. Frans Human has published a number of poems in Afrikaans through the local church community.
