Future Letter to Morrie SchwartzEssay Preview: Future Letter to Morrie SchwartzReport this essayLe Mont-Saint-Michel, FranceNewton, MassachusettsMay-18-2013Dear Morrie SchwartzMorrie, first of all I would love to introduce myself. Well, my name in Omar and I am 16 years old. My life has been pretty normal I would guess. I have many dreams of becoming a great architectural engineer. I am currently enrolled in 5 AP classes. I have known a little bit of your life and also been very influence by you.
Morrie I recognize that I have an abundance of areas to work in life. Throughout your teaching I have learn of aging and how to enjoy many cultures. You have thought me to enjoy life. I know that life is full of superficial material, but I learn that the interior is much more important. One of my favorite virtue of you is the way you always make a connection with Buddhist quotes. “Because if youve found meaning in your life, you dont want to go back. You want to go forward.” These words by you have been really inspiriting and throughout my short life I have never known what to do with anything good. I will start enjoying life like you did. Even though, I will never get the blessing to meet you. I know you were a great man, a loving husband, an amiable teacher, and an amazing friend. I would have loved to have been at your living funeral and express your blessing in my life.
You gave the same quote to a member of the Roka Bhaal family who was attending the burial of their loved one. The entire Roka Bhaal family was present at the funeral and gave the right quotes. Here is a link to that quote in which the Roka family member was quoted:
M.S.B.P.R.
The family and I spent seven full days together in a private house at the site of Gomorrah on December 1 as my final resting place. It was our final home before leaving for Gomorrah, which was near the Roka Bhaal village that day. A small stone house built at the top of the hill was built in honor of our family, and we are grateful to have been able to share that home. It is sad to hear that the family and I, who have always cared for and loved others, have decided to have a great funeral for this family here near the village. That’s a great tribute and, as I do my duty to my brother, I have my hearts set on it. We feel safe in our plans so we are thankful for the sacrifice of the Roka family, as we are aware of all your sacrifices. We are now just doing ours here with you here in Gomorrah, so please know this is your last chance to return to family and the world and make a last stand as I leave for Gomorrah and I begin preparing for a better eternity.
What I would like to thank you for is the right words for the Roka Bhaal family to understand that the Roka family’s faith and spirituality is very relevant for other people. I feel you know I am grateful for all the religious connections and experiences that people have with others on the earth, from the great ones like you who were always happy and true to what is true in my life. Most importantly, I do not regret how we have spent our entire lives in this wonderful world.
In your humble words:
You were an inspiration to me when I began developing this quote on Christmas Eve. Your generosity and compassion for your family were never out of the question. When you have not only enjoyed all that I’ve learned, but you have even been able to make an important contribution to my education, as well as your family, it leaves a strong impression on me. I am grateful for that. I think of you every day as an example of a father being so kind and generous to so many people, because if one could not express his love for you as an individual then the world could not accept that happiness. I believe that many people would have found this incredible generosity and compassion for others so wonderful. Thank you for sharing that with me.
I was given much of that warmth with my mother at the time, and I am glad to see that you continue to give me your heartfelt love of life and with good will.
My heart goes out to your family as well. One cannot help but feel that they are a wonderful and generous people. However, the truth is it will not take them long to truly realize that their compassion and generosity is something truly special.
My wish to you is that I had a little more life experience in a few weeks time, because in my time with you I do feel like I have more experience.
