Tuesday's with Morrie (4 Chapeters)

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.
