'A Letter to Morrie Shwartz\r'

'It really started to dawn on me how thinly we take the time we hold in our lives and how little we love and live to the fullest. I find out that your belief in â€Å"when we bunco how to die, we learn how to live” was really instruct and true. As I read your philosophies on death and develop, you really described aging as not something to be hate and feared, but something to be embraced. You thought of it as more knowledge and experience, and had no antecedent to be jealous of young mint; why be jealous of a man who is 40 when youve already been on that point?This idea really changed my thoughts on aging. some other belief of yours that admired was the bird perched on your shoulder. Though it wasnt your philosophy, it changed me a spread to cause harder in life. I ask myself distributively day whether or not would be satisfied with dying at the lay off of the day. From this idea, thought of each time I sleep as me dying, but organism reborn in the morning and s tarting line the day anew. However, some old age Im mediocre really unsatisfied, and thats okay, but will everlastingly try my best to brace a huge day every day.When you had one(a) of your early conversations catching up with Mitch by and by so many years, I comprise your outlook on peoples commonplace lives to be very true. In the past few months, found myself very unsatisfied with how I was doing in school and keeping my dead body active. I had many unsatisfied days and nights, falling asleep unsure and anxious. During the day, I try my best to be alert and in the moment, and really being there, having my crusade man in the room in front of my peers. This idea really changed my thoughts on everyday fife and experiencing it fully.Yet another philosophy of yours that really move me was your â€Å" stealment technique. Recently, Ive taken a lot of blows to my pride, and have lost a lot of extol from others and myself. I just have a lot of self-pity. Some days, when I f eel incredibly sad and helpless, I detach myself; experience, wash myself in all the nix emotions bothering me. Face these problems and emotions so that I washbasin understand it, know it, and then allow go. It really helps when I feel fairly low, and Im sure it will help take down more n the future, and thankful for that, Morris. coterminous pig) All in all, my idea Of the content Of life has changed so much. I have learned to live more, love more, and do more. It has changed me as a person, and really could never have had such a great learning experience. Ive learned a lot about myself and the people around me; flaws, talents, interests, opinions, beliefs, the slant goes on. A lot of the problems Ive had have been solve thanks to your story, Morris. I am unfeignedly thankful for that, and your student Mitch, for sharing it with us. sincerely yours yours,\r\n'
