Tuesday's with Morrie


Tuesdays with Morrie is about a professor who was diagnosed with ALS. ALS is a disease that slowly degrades a person’s body till they are no more than a shell of their formers selves. Taking away the freedoms and pleasures of a normal human being and replacing them with despair. However Morrie did not fall into despair. He had a goal, a goal to help people live fuller lives. With the help of Mitch, a former student of his, he was able to help not only his former student’s life but the lives of others around him. He wanted to teach the world one last thing before he died, love each other equally and give to one’s community.  Through life lessons on every Tuesday Mitch learned the right way to live. Although Morrie was lost in the end Mitch became a changed man.
