Sunday, July 02, 2006 1:33 PM Just finished reading this book a couple of days ago, very inspiring and thought-provoking. talks about death, marriage, working life, forgiveness etc. it is about this old man called morrie who's suffering from a terminal illness called ALS which affects his brain or sth, it renders him impossible to move about and do his daily business, then his student mitch who has lost touch with him for 16 years started visitng him on every tuesday. thereafter on every visits they talked about lots of stuff pertaining to life. sth like an inspirational book, but definitely much more enjoyable than those typical ones that we seen on the shelves. love the book when the author says something that aptly and very precisely conveys what i feel towards something, as if the sentiment is taken right out of my heart. death is a scary thing, i cant imagine myself dying or witnessing my closed ones' life slowing seeping away.

"When you learn how to die, you learn how to live."
"Death ends a life, not a relationship."
