Tuesdays w/ MORRIe - Morrie

I have read this for five times. And today was my fifth time of reading this.
This book has really touching story. The teacher, Morrie makes every scene in the book impressive. His attitude towards on death is too brave and bright. He seemed like he is just moving on to another journey. He was looking beyond the Death that everyone fears. His humors was impressive and funny, but somewhat sad. Because most of them are about his death or disables. Even there was dirty thing happened in the story due to Morrie's disease, the character, Morrie's existence and his characteristics covered those all.
While reading this book, i had a thought. It might be closer to a wish. The wish of having a teacher like Morrie. Then my life will be much more beautiful and worthier then now or in future. I think, Morrie is an ideal model of true teacher. The teacher who teaches his/her students love and forgiveness, and make them to open their eyes on a lot of part in the world that they have forgotten and missed for a long long time. In my opinion, this book might make a great impact on the people who lived their lives too busily or emotionlessly. Not only this book, but other books that talk about life, love, things we just have passed by.
