Why Wait for Eulogies chronicles Lakshmi's experience in this journey and her witnessing first-hand how the expression of gratitude spills joy many times over. In doing so, Lakshmi urges people to celebrate love and friendship; to take the time to express gratitude to the people that matter in big ways and small, before it is too late.Why Wait for Eulogies is ultimately a joyful celebration of friendship, love, gratitude, and powerful themes that unite each of us. It is about the power of appreciation to open the door to vulnerable, honest conversations, and the ability for us to generate and spread joy each day
