America had become a Persian bazaar of self-help. But there still seemed to be no clear answers.

Mitch Albom's "Tuesdays with Morrie" explores the complexities of self-help culture in America, likening it to a chaotic Persian bazaar. In this vibrant marketplace of ideas and solutions, individuals seek guidance and answers to life’s pressing questions. However, despite the abundance of resources and advice available, many still find themselves without clear direction or understanding.

The juxtaposition of myriad self-help options against the backdrop of unanswered life queries highlights a fundamental truth: true wisdom and answers often reside in meaningful relationships and experiences. Morrie, the protagonist's mentor, emphasizes the importance of human connection and introspection, offering insights that transcend the superficiality of mainstream self-help trends.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
