Making the Best of the Rest:
Finding Grace, Love, and Meaning in Life’s Second Act
by Keith Thorn
When life changes—through loss, age, or the quiet rearranging of what matters most—we stand at a crossroads and ask: Now what?
In Making the Best of the Rest, author Keith Thorn invites you into an intimate, soul-stirring reflection on what it means to begin again when the road behind you is longer than the one ahead. From his coastal winters in Port Isabel, Texas, to memories of faith, family, and forgiveness, Keith shares stories that remind us: joy is still possible, peace is still reachable, and love—if we let it—still finds its way.
With his trademark blend of honesty, humor, and hope, he writes not about perfection, but about presence; not about endings, but about choosing meaning over regret.

For anyone navigating change, grief, or the uncertain terrain of midlife and beyond, this book is a gentle companion and a heartfelt call to live intentionally—today. Because the best of life isn’t over.

It’s just waiting for you to make the best of the rest.
