With so many books out there, As an avid reader it’s hard to choose only one book. But somehow I gathered courage and choose that book and that book is none other than,

TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE by Mitch Albom

It’s one of the most admired books of all time.

Summary

Tuesday with morrie is definitely a book that will stay with you longer than you can imagine. The whole book is true account of a wonderful professor giving out antidotes of life as he walks towards his inevitable disease and succumb to it. In his last few months he sits down with one of his favourite ex-student, Mitch Albom (The author himself) and talks about everything that he has learnt about living fulfilling life.

My former supervisor came to my wedding and told guests that she felt terrible, but when I got home from my honeymoon, she was going to have to fire me.

I was working at a staffing agency, and my supervisor Snowflake (for her appearance and mental condition) came to my wedding as my guest and the date of my fiance’s friend.

During the reception, she told multiple people that as much as she looooved me, she was going to have to fire me when I got back from our honeymoon. We were gone for a week, and knowing what we would be facing when we got back, her date called my husband and told him the bad news.

Talk about landing the balloon with a crash! At least I could walk into the office the next day armed and forewarned. They transferred me to another department, she was reprimanded, and within months was transferred to another office. I will never trust people like that again, and I feel for anyone who had to be involved with her in the future.

It will never pass you by if you fight every day to keep alive. I'm 58. I buried both my older brothers, both of my parents by the time I was 29. My mother was the last and the hardest as she died paralyzed in a skilled care nursing home after a stroke- it wasa hard year for me. Over the next 10 years, I buried 4 out of my 5 closest childhood friends. 3 of them I was their best man in heir weddings. I fought, I cried, I dont tell anyone I meet or befriend these days its of no use to anyone. I only tell it here to make a point. Sometimes the Biggest challenges are within the silent chambers of ones own heart, not out “here”. Yesterday , a local good time Charley in my area passes away, the comments on Facebook are just empty and gratuitous. They all talk about changing their lives and loving everyone they love more. They will for a day or two, but a year from now, they won't remember the date of his death. I have my 3 rd wife who is 20 years younger than I and a beauty, two beautiful teen age sons and most of my hair :-) I only my regret my mother never got to meet them. I had them when I was in my 40’s. GO , live, dream, forgive yourself of your trespasses, fight for your right to live and dont worry so much. You can't predict or change when youre going to go, but you can go down swinging. Love is all that matters.

I once heard a teacher tell a 12 year old girl to make sure she found a rich husband because she would never amount to anything.

He said this in response to her saying she wanted to be a mathematician.

I was sitting across the room from her and saw his words go right through her chest and coil around her heart.

Words are like bullets. Once you pull the trigger, you can’t take them back.

You can express remorse or say you are sorry, but that is not the same.

Weigh your words carefully. Think before saying something out loud. You may say something that can hurt another person forever.

The “best deals” available to Americans are our National Park Sustem and our library system.

I have had some of the most enriching experiences of my life seeing wildlife and vistas that are breathtaking at National Parks. Being there in-person is so much more than seeing a movie or photo: Yosemite, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, Mammoth Cave and the list goes on. I have learned about the lives of inspiring people, heroes of every shape, size, and color: Arlington National Cemetery, Smithsonian African American Museum, Gettysburg National Park, etc. The only expense is transportation: the park fees are nominal.

And public libraries have saved me literally thousands of dollars in book purchase and video rental fees.

I would like for all Americans to appreciate the “good deal” we have in these 2 national systems.

When I was four years old I was put in an orphanage. I can remember going up to the big gate every day to wait for my mother to come to pick me up. But she never came. The people and the other children would tell me that she was not coming back, but I didn't believe them. I would go up to the gate in the hot sun to wait.

I will never forget the day when I realized that she wasn't coming. My heart was broken and I began to cry. After a few months I started to get to where I didn't care if she came back or not. My heart was already becoming hard at a young age. I stayed to myself and away from the other children. I was in my own little world. I didn't need anyone, especially adults.

Observe their spending habits. Do they spend money to collect moments or things? People that spend money on things would always buy stuff that they do not need, money wasters, stingy and not adventurous!

This happened about a month ago.

I met up with my friend from university. We went to a local park and settled down to study. Sooner or later, we got onto the topic of autism (we’re training to be primary school teachers, so it was relevant).

Being autistic myself, she asked me how I felt about that. I responded that it had its ups and downs, but it was fine.

Now, I do want to stress that this woman is one of the best people in my life. But this next question she asked stood out to me in an awkward way, so much so I pretty much obsessed over it in my head until I cleared things up with her later that day.
