Life is full of chance -- whether you realize it or not. For Nancy L. Reed, life has consisted of department store adventures, scary moments on the road, meetings with famous people and their relatives, an up-close experience with an elk, and the loving caress of a puma's tongue. And those are just a few of the less-perilous highlights in Words Left Behind: tales of a life gladly lived .In her book, Reed chronicles seven decades of life experiences in a series of snippets that range from the sublime to the somewhat terrifying. Family, friends, strangers -- they're all addressed in tales which touch upon her childhood, the years she spent living near New York City, and new experiences discovered in her relocation to Colorado. She comes out of all of these events with broadening knowledge and a sense of self. Words Left Behind will make you laugh, shed a tear, and probably think about the memory snippets in your life.
