In "Tuesdays with Morrie," Mitch Albom explores the idea of fully experiencing emotions instead of avoiding or suppressing them. By immersing oneself in feelings like pain, love, and grief, individuals gain a deeper understanding of these emotions. This process allows one to recognize the complexities of human experience and develop a more profound empathy toward oneself and others.

Once individuals have fully engaged with their emotions, they can begin the process of detachment. This step is crucial for emotional health, as it enables people to reflect on their experiences without being overwhelmed by them. Morrie teaches that by acknowledging and processing our feelings, we can learn to manage them more effectively, leading to a balanced and fulfilling life.
