BOOK OF THE DAY: 

Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom

One of the most meaningful connections a human being can achieve is a platonic love with a stranger. As we grow older we make promises to childhood friends, family, mentors, and professors that we will always keep in touch. Inevitably time becomes too thin and small promises are broken. Enter Morrie Schwartz, Mitch Albom’s dear college professor. Albom decided to reconnect with his beloved professor during the last few months of his professor’s life, who was suffering from ALS.

Extremely readable and precious, Albom chronicles their last magical moments together. The most tender book we have ever read, every word uttered by Morrie is profoundly loving and introspective. Although an inevitable death, we are extremely grateful that Albom chose to share Morrie’s wisdom with the world. Morrie Scwartz was in fact a gift to humanity. Morrie’s philosophy on life deviates from a consumerist culture by adding weight and significance on our feelings and the importance of being kind to one another, especially to our inner selves. Though kindness, truth is found. This is the biggest lesson we learned from Morrie. Be kind to yourself by allowing yourself to be human without restrictions.

“If you hold back on the emotions—if you don’t allow yourself to go all the way through them—you can never get to being detached, you’re too busy being afraid. You’re afraid of the pain, you’re afraid of the grief. You’re afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails. But by throwing yourself into these emotions, by allowing yourself to dive in, all the way, over your heard even, you experience them fully and completely.”

Although some readers claim that Tuesdays with Morrie is a hallmark card on steroids, we will admit that such statement deeply saddens us. We couldn’t help but to fall in love with Morrie. Albom was successful in capturing his former professor’s charm and lovability factor. After all these years, we will infinitely remember Tuesdays with Morrie because it instills a desire for us to be better people. Some books get jammed in our head, but Tuesdays with Morrie built a small shelf in our hearts. We felt extremely connected to Morrie. Morrie will inspire you to hug your loved ones, especially your elders, tonight. We can promise you this much.

tv should come with recipes or suggested meal plans made by the director so you can have an immersive snack like wine pairings

every time a character sits down to eat in a movie i pause the movie and get up and prepare that food and then eat the meal with the character (take bites at the same time) so i can really feel what they are feeling

I received a trans-Atlantic call one day. “Skip died”, Daddy said. He and my mama wrapped him in my baseball jacket. They buried him out under the elm tree, they said. That wasn’t totally true, for he really lay buried in my heart

[asimpleline18]

“The dog of your boyhood teaches you a great deal about friendship, and love, and death: Old Skip was my brother. They had buried him under our elm tree, they said—yet this wasn’t totally true. For he really lay buried in my heart.”

The longer I live, the more deeply I learn that love — whether we call it friendship or family or romance — is the work of mirroring and magnifying each other’s light. Gentle work. Steadfast work. Life-saving work in those moments when life and shame and sorrow occlude our own light from our view, but there is still a clear-eyed loving person to beam it back. In our best moments, we are that person for another.

Maturity is not seeking revenge. It's healing and moving on, so you don’t become like the people who traumatized you.
