REFLECTION: Tuesdays with Morrie

Maelanie Aranguez


I felt touched when I first saw the movie “Tuesdays with Morrie” especially when Morrie got ill. I felt pity on his situation- being a happy old man who loved to danced and eat a lot of foods- now suffering from ALS. He never afraid to die instead he continue to teach the meaning of life. He taught how love is important to human being. I learned that we should be thankful to God that he has given us a good life and we should continue doing things in better way. We should learn to live our life to the fullest. I really can’t forget of what Morrie said “Once you learn to die, you learn to live”. Death is one big thing that makes people shed tears. It was very an interesting story on how Morrie handled his situation and socialized with others, on how he accepts the fact that he is going to die. He’s very strong and never loses hope. He showed respect to others and act as he was happy yet he felt empty inside. We should better learn as we live our own life, as what Morrie said “life is all about learning and teaching”.
