Tuesdays With Morrie

In the book Tuesdays with Morrie there are many powerfull messages and its hard to chose one. The one that stood out to me was"Is this all? Is this all I want? Is something missing? Do you take care of others of take care of yourself? Return Traditional values of reject tradition as useless? Just say no of Just do it all? ". This stood out to me because I stopped and thought about it , such simple questions that lead to big thoughts. Is this really what I want?, I'm I doing everything I can to be the best I can be? What am I going to do with out Maggie(school) in my life? In the chapter when Morrie Talks about regret, Talks about the world culture...Each chapter is powerful and takes you back to experiences and again moves you on how Mitch is relizing and learning so much from Morrie, I don;t even know how to explain it. When Mitch makes a list about topics he wants to talk about with Morrie death, fear, aging, greed,marrige,family,society,forgiveness, the meaning of life.
I also wanted to talk about another quote that I found intresting “Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn’t. You take certain things for granted, even though you know you shouldn’t take anything for granted.” This qoute is powerful as well says alot. In life Morrie says it best You take certain things for granted, even though you know you shouldn;t take anything for granted. The little things such as , having a roof over your head, food, being able to walk,coming to school, a beutiful sunny day. Sometimes you get caught up in work, money, materialistic things and forget about the little things in life that make a difference. I guess I always refer back to whats always in the back of my head. One smile can make a difference, the concept of paying it forward.
I am looking forward to keep reading Tuesdays with Morrie and see what life lessons and inspiring stories Morrie has to share with Mitch.
