So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things.

In "Tuesdays with Morrie," author Mitch Albom reflects on the nature of a meaningful life through conversations with his former professor, Morrie Schwartz. He observes that many individuals go through life feeling unfulfilled, often appearing to be in a daze despite engaging in various activities. This sense of aimlessness stems from pursuing goals that lack true significance.

The essence of Morrie's wisdom highlights the importance of introspection and aligning one's pursuits with what truly matters. Many are distracted by societal expectations, leading them to chase superficial achievements rather than living authentically. Ultimately, Morrie encourages a deeper understanding of life, urging individuals to seek genuine connections and values.

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.
