Tuesdays with Morrie

1. Accept what you are able to do and what you are not able to do.
2. Accept the past as past, without denying it or discarding it.
3. Learn to forgive yourself and to forgive others.
4. Don’t assume that it’s too late to get involved.

Death should not be embarrassing.
Try to live with dignity, with courage, with humor, composure
Life is series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing but you are bound to do something else.

Something hurt you but you know it shouldn’t
You take certain things for granted, even when you k now you should never take anything for granted.

Love wins. It always wins.

The culture we have does not make people feel good about themselves. And you have to be strong enough to say if the culture doesn’t work, don’t bury it

So may people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half asleep, even when they’re doing things they think important. This is because they are chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.
