Morrie Revisted

I absolutely re-read Tuesdays Behind Morrie. Some people think that the story - although true - is a dwindling soppy. Or at token people think the exchange of ideas Morrie was trying to transport is soppy.

Acceptable I think his insightfulness is profit hearing and happening are some of the aphorisms and advice he departed us with..

"A serious life will not be create in the advent job or the advent car. The way you get meaning in your life is to allocate yourself to allocation others and creating something that gives you purpose."

"The elegance we hold does not make people feel good about themselves. And you hold to be strong plethora to say if the elegance doesn't work, don't buy it."

"One and all knows they're goodbye to die, but not anything believes it. If we did, we would do stuff differently."

"Do what the Buddhists do. Every day, hold a dwindling bird on your grasp that asks, 'Is today the day [that I will die]? Am I ready? Am I performance all I need to do? Am I being the person I want to be?"

"Gone you learn how to die, you learn how to live."

"In this elegance it's so life-threatening to find a loving relationship with have fun the same as so furthest of the elegance does not give you that. But the poor family today, either they're too generous to revitalization part in a real loving relationship, or they be effusive into marriage and also six months next, they get divorced. They don't deduce what they want in a associate. They don't deduce who they are themselves--so how can they deduce who they're marrying?"

"I granted what I at ease on my headstone...A teacher to the claim..."

"So many people tramp coarsely with a insensible life. They encircle half-asleep, respectable in the role of they are busy performance stuff they think are life-threatening. This is the same as they are chasing the jagged stuff. The way you get meaning into your life is to allocate yourself to loving others, allocate yourself to your community coarsely you, and allocate yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning."

"Release yourself beforehand you die. So release others."

"... I appreciate aging... It's very simple. As you grow, you learn manager. If you stayed at twenty-two, you'd continually be as unmindful as you were at twenty-two. Aging is not just deteriorating, you deduce. It's growth. It's manager than the wicked that you're goodbye to die, it's after that the positive that you understand you're goodbye to die, and that you live a better life the same as of it. "

"...Submit are a few rules I deduce to be true about love and marriage: If you don't respect the extra person, you're gonna hold a lot of trouble. If you don't deduce how to indulgence, you're gonna hold a lot of trouble. If you can't talk widely about what goes on connecting you, you're gonna hold a lot of trouble. And if you don't hold a general set of values in life, you're gonna hold a lot of trouble."

"Departure ends a life, not a relationship."
