Tuesdays with Morrie

Tuesdays with Morrie inspires every readers and gives hope. Aging doesn't mean doing nothing at all. We should embrace life, make struggles your motivation and foundation of your being. And what I've learned, - "Live life to the fullest."

1. "Once you learn how to die, you learn how to live."  

2. "You closed your eyes. That was the difference. Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them too-even when you are in the dark. Even when you're falling."

3. "As you grow old, you learn more. If you stayed at twenty-two, you'd always be as ignorant as you were at twenty-two. Aging is not just decay, you know. It's growth. It's more than the negative that you're going to die, its also the positive that you understand you're going to die, and that you live a better life because of it."

4. "So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning."  

5. "The culture we have does not make people feel good about themselves. And you have to be strong enough to say if the culture doesn't work, don't buy it."

6. "The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in."

7. "If you don't have the support and love and caring and concern that you get from a family, you don't have much at all. Love is so supremely important."

8. "The truth is, you don't get satisfaction from those things. You know what really gives you satisfaction? ...Offering others what you have to give."

9. "Forgive yourself before you die. Then forgive others."

10. "Death ends a life, not a relationship."
