Tuesdays_WIth_Morrie

Tuesdays WIth Morrie When my parents first told me that it would be a good idea for me to read Tuesdays With Morrie, my perception of the memoir was that it was an account of an old man dying. This did not seem, to me, to be the most interesting topic to read about. I reluctantly began the book and soon became quite involved with the novel’s insightful progression. I initially thought I would construct a typical review of the novel and hand it in for a good grade. I then asked myself if I would learn anything by writing a summary. Two answers became evident. The first was that, of course, I would learn how to write yet another book report. The second was that I would not benefit at all from simply summarizing the memoir. I came to the conclusion that by focusing my paper on that which Morrie so eloquently taught the reader, both me and my teacher would gain insight and understanding about living life to it’s fullest. Morrie’s message was, in short, not to become preoccupied with death and dying, but to live the life that you still have tuesdays, morrie, life, mitch, taught, old, memoir, death, able, way, wanted, study, student, read, lessons, learn, last, every, dying, book, about, two, teacher, teach, speak, soon, shared, share, schwartz, reads, professor, person, people, parents
