Takeaways from ‘Tuesdays with Morrie’
I recently read a beautiful book ‘ Tuesdays with Morrie’ . I completed the book within two days . That's how much I was hooked to it. In this book, Mitch and his professor, Morrie, meet on every Tuesday, to have “adult conversations”, and Morrie gives lessons to his student on “how to live”.
Beautiful life lessons which are universal in nature but of utmost importance.
All along our life , we only care about materialistic things like money, fame, career, bigger house , latest car but still nothing fills the emptiness that we have in our souls.
We have been dumped into this world orchestrated to compare . It is our responsibility to not fall for this trap. People always look down upon who are beneath them and look up to who are above . But never treat equal.
Our wants never cease and the greed never ends.
The book gave such a clear message -
“Life is as Complicated & as Simple as we make it “
What is true wealth if not having beautiful , loving & meaningful relationships around you.
Love and only Love is the way we stay alive after death
Everything else we seek in life is like sleepwalking through it. Life withers away quickly without having a purpose.
Let life give you all experiences and receive them with open arms. Absorb every feeling , let it penetrate but also detach yourself soon.
This book lingers on your mind & stays with you for days .It makes you feel comfortable! In the midst of current events in the world Morrie’s life story and Mitch’s style of writing is exactly what is needed to stop the hatred, stop the wars, end deep suffering and become more human in this beautiful but sad world.
