Mitch Albom's Tuesdays With Morrie

Tuesdays with Morrie
The author was a man named Mitch Albom, who was very close to his university professor, who was very close to his teacher, ALS, after 16 years of his promise to return to his hometown and to stay in touch with his teacher when he watched the television as a cure for muscular nerve function. I think it's possible. Based on this reality, this book was written for the memory of his teacher. (he was an athletic journalist) Morrie Schwartz was a sociologist at Brandeis University, and published numerous papers on this subject.
After returning with my teacher, every Tuesday afternoon I went to school to study. The last lesson of Professor Morrie's teaching was no need for any book, no exam and no amount, and there was no student

Why do you have to go through the pain that has passed through you since you can not get anything back? It's a regret that it's not what we did when we knew we'd die. One such response to a question asked by Morrie was one. The host: "If one can not hear, and the other two can not speak, how can these two be? Morrie said: "We'll have hands on our hands, and we can run a lot of love between us." There is always a way to avoid hurting yourself or others. We are able to speak, understand, apologize, or help with …show more content…
From evil to worse. But Morrie had a very long time to live, because her nervous nerves were dying everyday, so the most "understood" value was understood. Feeling just living, feeling sick, touching somebody's hands, fresh smell of new bubbles, fresh snow, rain, yellow leaves, and all of them are "feel" and stay alive. Learn to face your emotions. It does not hurt you, it does not hurt you, it only gives you a feeling, that you're alive. When read Dan Brown's "Reciter Code", wild Albanian is about to punish, blood, and feel it. For the first time I read it, I felt a little differently. No matter what feeling I was, I felt like I was able to feel her. Try to think differently when you're injecting something or getting an objection. Make sure the tee needle penetrates your skin and puts it in your muscles, and feel very warmly. I did not do bad things, it's all right. Just like that, it does not seem so bad, I promise. / how weird I am -_-

    Watching a family member slowly die is one of the toughest experiences someone could go through. I had to do this when I was in my early teens with someone who I admired greatly and held a large place in my heart, my father. He was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS and Lou Gehrig 's disease, and I watched for almost two years as he lost the ability to use his right hand, then both of his legs, right up to the point where he couldn’t speak to us and he had to blink once for yes and twice for no. It hurt our family immensely to watch him struggle to ask for something as simple as water, but it hurt him in a way that was much worse than the disease itself. He had to look into the world hearing everyone go by his room…

    Grief has been both my downfall and my saving grace. No one knows how to grieve properly or correctly, but the one thing I learned from grieving at a very young age, is that grief is love; specifically, unconditional love. This unconditional love towards someone (or in my case, many people) pours out as a sign of loneliness and yearning just to hold them and hug them one final time. I understand that losing people is a part of life and can’t be avoided, but growing up, I thought my world had turned upside down when I lost the two most important people to me. Three weeks prior to my tenth birthday, my Nana passed away from Alzheimer’s Disease.…

I knew her health was not the best; however, the diagnosed health problems were not what killed her.…
