In the novel Tuesday's with Morrie by Mitch Albom, spoke about an
old professor and his experience on life, whose views in life were so much
different than others. Morrie was a much opened minded professor, with
affectionate spirit. He believed everything in life had a meaning and a purpose
and left us an understanding of
“Life’s greatest
lesson"
As he had referred to it. As
Morrie's main formal student, Mitch Albom said,
"He taught
about the meaning of life and it was taught by experience" (pg. 6).
In this novel what
really inspired me is how he breaks everything down to a question and the
choices he
makes to answers his questions for example, as he said to
himself ,
"Do I wither up and disappear,
or do I make the best if my time left” (pg14).
Morrie talked about life in a whole different way that
can open your eyes to a whole new different perspective , making everything
meaningful and life Changing .We all know about death it happen to all of
us , young old , rich , poor but what was are purpose of us being here ?
In our new generation, we let society overcome and take over our life’s, coming
from music, partying, and everything that has told us we only live once why not
do it do it? Or "we are going to die anyway”. We didn't get put on this
earth to just constantly party, there's so much more to life. It’s never too
late to change your life and see how truly beautiful life can be. Enjoy it the
right way. What is the right way? Learning to know are own worth , being
appreciative with every second that is given to us , having a
Reminder that we only have a certain time length to do what we have to do
, tomorrow is never promised , Leave behind a good lesson for others to learn
on . Morrie , instead of giving up after he found out about his illness , he
stayed content, continued doing the things he enjoyed to do
"teaching” . Mitch wrote
"My old professor, meanwhile, was stunned
by the normalcy of the day around him. Shouldn't the world stop, don’t they
know what has happened to me?" " but the word didn't stop , it took
no notice at all , as Morrie pulled weakly on the car door, he felt as if
he were dropping into a hole " "know what? "(pg12)
Now we are taking our time to learn about him and his journey and
he became an inspiration and great teacher not just to Mitch but to almost all
the readers that have picked up this book.
