In "Tuesdays with Morrie," Morrie Schwartz emphasizes the importance of human connection throughout all stages of life. He highlights that from the moment we are born, we rely on others for our survival. This dependency doesn't fade away as we grow; rather, it transforms and remains essential. As we age, we again find ourselves needing others, particularly in our later years when life's challenges resurface.
Morrie's insight reveals a profound truth: the need for relationships is a constant throughout life. He suggests that cultivating and valuing these connections is crucial not only for survival but for a fulfilling existence.
