You know what the Buddhists say? Don't cling to things, because everything is impermanent.
by Mitch Albom
(0 Reviews)

In "Tuesdays with Morrie," author Mitch Albom shares poignant lessons from his mentor, Morrie Schwartz, emphasizing the idea of letting go. Morrie's wisdom reflects a core Buddhist teaching about the impermanence of life, urging individuals not to become overly attached to material possessions or outcomes. This perspective invites readers to embrace the transient nature of existence and seek deeper meaning beyond superficial attachments.

Ultimately, Morrie’s message serves as a reminder to live fully in the present and appreciate relationships and experiences. By acknowledging that everything in life is fleeting, we can cultivate a mindset that values what truly matters—connection, love, and the lessons learned along the way. This philosophical approach encourages a richer, more meaningful life amidst the inevitable changes and losses we face.

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.

You say you're 'depressed' - all i see is resilience. You are allowed to feel messed up and inside out. It doesn't mean you're defective - it just means you're human.
