Whether it’s your grandparent, a teacher, or someone older and wise, you’ve probably met an influential figure who understood you when you were young and searching for answers in life. For Mitch Alborn, that person was his old college professor Morrie Schwartz. Mitch was fortunate to have a second chance of gleaning from his wisdom during Morrie’s last months of life. He would visit Morrie in his study every Tuesday, and each visit would turn into a lesson in living life. ‘Taking just makes me feel like I’m dying. Giving makes me feel like I’m living,’ Morrie responded when Mitch questioned his unwillingness to accept sympathy from other people. Tuesdays with Morrie is packed with valuable lessons including how to forgive, be compassionate towards others, and live life live as if it’s your last day. With 15 million copies sold worldwide, Morrie’s presence and lessons continue to influence people through this book.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
