All of us are teachers in a way and also students, you know? If you look hard enough, just about everybody has a stupid lesson to teach, and nearly all of us has a pointless lesson to learn: that the power of love unites us all, I guess; that you're never alone even when you are; that sacrifice is important for some reason; and, of course, that life's greatest lesson is life itself or something.
Death is only the beginning for Old Joe the candyman. When the 75-year-old warehouse foreman is crushed to death by several improperly stacked crates of McConnell Confections' most saccharine, unfulfilling sweets, he begins the greatest journey of all: the journey to Heaven from Earth. There, he will meet five people and get one last chance to learn life's dumbest lesson.
The Five Lessons You Learn After You're Dead is a completely original work of inspirational fiction. Any similarity to more popular books--such as Mitch Albom's Tuesdays with Morrie, The Five People You Meet in Heaven, or For One More Day--is purely the result of the vapid sentiments upon which they are mutually based.
