Tuesdays with Morrie

The book Tuesdays with Morrie was written by Mitch Albom in September of 1997. This book is a lesson of life that can be learned from old wise man. The relationship between the narrator, Mitch Albom, and his past professor Morrie, who is sentenced to death by illness, was like the relationship between father and son. The significant quote that I found was: "I buried myself in accomplishments, because with accomplishment, I believed I could control things, I could squeeze in every last piece of happiness before I sick and died, like my uncle before me, which I figured was my natural fate." The book Tuesday with Morrie challenges life to change the perspective to live more freely.
