Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom   

     'Tuesdays with Morrie'' is a textbook about the  meaning of life. Different issues 

in our lifespan development are covered  ranging from marriage, forgivness,  to aging 

and death. By exposing myself to Morrie's insightful philosophy of life, I start to learn a new 

perspective to view my life.

           'Tuesdays with Morrie' is an alarm clock for many of us. Morrie repeatedly 

remind us  we are half alseep and are looking for something that we do not actually desire.

Through his  explanation on this issue across different chapters, you will get to know what 

is the most important thing in our life.

            'Tuesdays with Morrie' is a compass for our life. Morrie does not only point 

out the key problems  encountered by people in general, he also provedes us with  different 

fresh perspectives to view our challenges, which are always the medicine to cure our

 'long -established illness'. Hence, by learning how to live under his guidance, we can know 

where we should go for the rest of our life.

         In fact, as a teacher of English in future,  what I learn from Morrie is not just his 

fresh perspectives of life, more important than that is his attitude towards teaching. He was a

 teacher of sociology. However, his aim is not to train students to be  well - known sociologists. Instead,

he regards teaching students to be a real human as the first priority. In other words, subject 

matter is not the most precious thing to students. Only teaching them how to live a meaningful

 life is the real mission of  every teacher.

          Thank you Morries for teaching me how to become a true teacher.

       My final words

              Human is complex. So our society now is very complicated. In order 

to alleviate  frustration in our life, we need to go back to simplicity, something that you 

originally have deep down your heart. By reading 'Tuesdays with Morrie' ,  he will  peel

off the outer layer of  our  hearts  and touch the core of every human being.
