In the poignant narrative of "Tuesdays with Morrie," the author, Mitch Albom, recounts his meaningful conversations with his former professor Morrie Schwartz, who is battling ALS. As Morrie reflects on life and its inevitable end, he emphasizes the importance of packing one's life with meaningful experiences rather than material possessions. His insights serve as a guide for navigating the complexities of existence and understanding what truly matters.

Morrie’s statement, “I'm on the last great journey here--and people want me to tell them what to pack,” encapsulates the essence of his teachings. It invites readers to ponder the wisdom acquired through life's lessons and the legacy one leaves behind. The book encourages a focus on love, relationships, and self-awareness, urging individuals to cherish each moment and prioritize what enriches their journey over superficial pursuits.

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.
