Tuesdays with Morrie


This book is indescribable. This book is complete. There's so many lesson that we can take from this book. Not only about love, but also about life, death even..

This book written in thesis format, it's a final thesis which written by Mitch Albom and helped by his Professor, Morrie.

I don't know whether this is a real story or not. It doesn't matter. Here's some highlights:
“Accept what you are able to do and what you are not able to do;
Accept the past as past, without denying it or discarding it;
Learn to forgive yourself and to forgive others;
Don't assume that it's too late to get involved.”

"You see, you closed your eyes. That was the difference. Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them, too--even when you’re in the dark. Even when you’re falling."

“Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something
else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn't. You take certain things for granted, even when
you know you should never take anything for granted."

“Love wins. Love always wins.”

“if you really want it, then you'll make your dream happen.“

“Once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.”

'Love each other or perish.'

"Don't cling to things, because everything is impermanent."

“Don't let go too soon, but don't hang on too long.”

“Forgive yourself before you die. Then forgive others.”
