That One Book🌼!

If you could read one Book in your lifetime.
Let it be this one .
That one Book is
Tuesdays with Morrie.
By Mitch Albom.
As the front cover of the book says it is all about 
An old man ( Morrie),a young man ( Mitch)
and life's greatest lesson.
As Morrie slowly starts withering away,his student Mitch joins in on a last thesis on the so-called life and it's purpose.
The book discovers the essence of Life, Love and Loss.
It holds  lessons on pain, grief, marriage, family and culture.
It explores the life's greatest complicacies  through simple aphorisms of Morrie.
Often we would have wanted that one mentor to clear all our dilemmas and to tell us what life's actually about.
Morrie does the same thing in this book with such ease and love.
I never knew him.
I never heard of him.
I do not even know if this was fiction or real.
But 
Every page of this little book which is big enough in it's deliverance has warmth,filled with Love and is a treasure we all would want to cherish for our lifetime.
This is a
Simple book yet effective.
It is
Heartbreaking yet heartwarming.
I laughed out loud. I cried like a little girl.
.
As Morrie says it's always the tension of opposites!
I , actually couldn't pick a few favourite quotes from this book as I said already the whole Book is a Treasure.
Anyhow.
Some for you,here!
* Giving is Living.
* Love each other or perish.
*Accept the past as past, without denying it or discarding it .
*Learn to forgive yourself and to forgive others.
* Don't assume that it's too late to get involved .
* The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love and to let it come in .
* Learn how to die!and you learn how to live.
* Don't cling to things! because everything is impermanent.
* If you're always battling against getting older, you're always going to be unhappy, because it will happen anyhow.
*There's a big confusion over what we want versus what we need.
*There's nothing in there about a salary.
I mean your time . Your concern. Your storytelling. Devote yourself to loving others.
*Love is how you stay alive.
*People are only mean when they're threatened.
* How we think,what we value -those you must choose yourself. You can't let anyone -orcany society -determine those for you .
*The way to do it, I think, isn't to run away. You have to work at creating your own culture.
* We don't believe we are as much alike as we are.
* Don't let go too soon,but don't hang on too long .
* Death ends a life ,not a relationship.
