'tuesdays with Morrie' with Mitch Albom
📚
This one really taught me that you don't need to be bald to be a star of your trade.
Hey! I am talking about Robin Sharma and the Monk Who Sold His Ferrari. 😉
When it comes to life lessons, this book is way more realistic and way less cringe.
Bonus : it's a True Story.
📚
To summarise in one line, I'll tell you the complete title - 'tuesdays with Morrie - an old man, a young man, and life's greatest lesson' 😎
The book is a memoir of Author's Professor at Brandeis University Mr Morrie Schwartz.
SPOILER ALERT : The book talks about Positive and Energetic Morrie's Tryst with ALS/Lou Gehrig's disease. It's a disease that we know from Stephen Hawking and the Ice Bucket Challenge but this book will tell you so much more - how it affects the body, taking over part by part. Sounds heartbreaking?
Don't worry - Morrie's Positivity Lessons with Mitch every Tuesday will keep you going. Morrie says some very beautiful things, which change your perspective on life and your priorities. And he seeing so much beauty from such tough physical conditions will make you feel motivated at times and sad at some others - but beautiful all the while.
📚
My favorite quote from the book is when he talks about Aging. Heading to 31, the crows' feet sometimes bother me, but here's what Morrie says -
"The truth is, part of me is every age. I'm a three-year-old, I'm a five-year-old, I'm a thirty-seven-year-old, I'm a fifty-year-old. I've been through all of them, and I know what it's like. I delight in being a child when it's appropriate to be a child. I delight in being a wise old man when it's appropriate to be a wise old man. Think of all I can be! I am every age, up to my own. Do you understand?"
📚
It was a short, sweet and magical read. A 4/5. ✨
Read it for positivity, especially on Tuesdays - just the way Morrie and Mitch did. 🎄
