In all the good advice given by Morrie to Mitch in the book and in the movie one
piece really stood out to me. This piece of advice was that you shouldnt just follow
along with society in its actions and views on people or objects. What this means is that
you shouldnt agree with something or someone just because it will make you accepted
or get you an increase in pay.
The reason I chose this piece was the moral value behind it. I also chose it based
on the fact that I agree with what Morries is saying. I also understand how I can learn
from it and how I already try to do exactly what he is saying. The way I can best explain
how I already do that is by simply saying that I dont have a desire to be a rich snob and
that I like being where I am. One example of this might be of Mitch really. He has
forgetten what Morrie had told him during his college years. Currently being a sports
writer people expect him to write more and more about athletes and games that would
make those people happy.
It relating to life is true for me is in the sense that I like living the simple life and
doing things that really make me happy and will not just gratify me for a few weeks or
months. If I ever do become rich I will help as many people as I can. I would hope
that other people would do the same.
