May I please have my own Morrie!?
This book is definitely one of my top favorites. It's funny, but insightful, sad, but heartwarming. Out of all the wisdom that Morrie passed on to Albom, Morrie saying " once you learn how to die, you learn how to live" stuck with me the most. It made me realize that I, and a lot of other people for that matter, take life for granted. We always think there is going to be another day, when in reality, we can't be so sure of that. Once Morrie was diagnosed with ALS, he had an estimate on when he was going to pass away. However, most of us don't get a heads up when our time is coming. It just happens. This quote reminded me to focus on the big picture, to not get caught up with school, work, or the rest of the things that will not satisfy me for the rest of my life.
Thank you, Morrie :)
