I really enjoy reading the book, and it just makes it so much better to be able to put a face to the name, Morrie Schwartz. The story became more real to me now that I actually listened to this man speak; its much more personal. Morrie Schwartz is just all around an amazing person.
Quite honestly, I was very surprised to actually read about & hear someone speak so selflessly. I wish there were more people like Morrie in this world. If I were dying, I would just be so upset and not know what to do with myself. Probably just end up feel sorry for myself all the time, thats for sure. But unlike most people, Morrie Schwartz has accepted the fact that he is going to die soon and is just making the most out of the rest of the time that he does have. I think that Mitch Albom is a very lucky person to have met and gotten to know Morrie Schwartz so well.

ReplyDeleteYour answer is interesting. I like what you are saying and I appreciate that fact that you like the book and seem to be getting something out of it, however, if you read the assignment a little more closely, you were supposed to be commenting directly about the video clip and your thoughts about it as it relates to the story and your readings. Focus you reponse a little better next time.
