"The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in."
Tuesday's with Morrie talks about a 90-year-old man, Morrie Schwartz, professor of Mitch Albom, suffering from a disease known as ALS. Mitch has lost track of his professor after graduation for 16 years until he saw a T.V interview with Morrie and came to know about his professor suffering from this deadly disease. He decided to reconnect with his old professor and when he travels back to his house to meet him, He was surprised with the affection Morrie greeted him just like he used to greet him 16 years back.
Mitch began visiting his former teacher on Tuesdays and Morrie shared everything he has learned in his life with his student and taught him the greatest lesson of life. They discussed almost everything they could do to the extent that time permitted. They talked about the world, self-pity, suffering, ego, anger issues, culture, struggle, forgiveness, career, love, marriage, family, emotion, ageing, death.
Morrie died on Saturday and the Tuesday's which Mitch has spent with him changed his life. The book shows us the pure, warm and true bond between and teacher and student which eventually turns out into friendship, that's how a teacher and a student relation should be, of friends.
Talking about my views about this book. I am certainly in love with this book. The insights shared by Morrie in this book changed my thought process and taught me how to live my life fullest and understand my ability. Before reading this book I had a prejudice about non-fiction books that non-fictions are utterly boring but this book changed my view. I would recommend everyone to read this book once in a lifetime and trust me, you will not regret reading this one. This book is full of wisdom and intriguing insights which will definitely leave a long-lasting impact on your life.
