Morrie Suffering

“Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it”. (Helen Keller). Helen Keller is like Morrie schwartz because morrie suffers through his pain but he overcomes it by enjoying what he has left of life. Morrie teaches people to live life by the world, suffering and death and forgiveness.
Morrie teaches that we can just talk than fight. He asks about the newspaper strike, and true to form he doesn't understand why both sides did not simply communicate with each other and solve the problem. “Now that i'm suffering, i feel closer to people who suffer than i ever did before”. (Albom pg. #): 50. I agree with Morrie. It doesn't make any sense to fight and suffer in that way, when people can just talk to each other and fix the problem even if they both make mistakes. This topic affects me because of what's going on in the world right now. People fighting for no reason, wars happening for no reason and especially people suffering for no reason.
Morrie also teaches about reality and when the time comes we have to face it.
Morrie feels like he does not experience the world fully anymore, rather half-asleep. He also talks about facing death. When he realizes he's going to die, He sees everything much differently. “If you accept you are going to die at anytime, then you might not be as ambitious as you are”. (Albom pg. #): 83. I think morrie is right. If anyone knows they're going to die, they would change their thinking and live life to the fullest and turn into a better person overall. I can relate to this topic about death because one of my brothers got really sick and almost past last year and it completely changed my thinking of
life.
Morrie’s finale teaching is to forgive before it's too late. Morrie would rather forgive before he died to let some people know that he's sorry or forgive some people so that he can pass away peacefully. “Forgive yourself before you die. Then forgive others”. (Albom pg. #): 164. I agree with morrie but me apologizing and forgiving people would be more for them than myself. This would be to let them know that i am thankful and sorry for everything bad that i have done. I can relate to this topic about forgiveness, because one time i did something bad that i got into a lot of trouble for my mom was really upset with me. Good thing she believes in forgiveness and forgave me because my mom has always been there for me and means everything to me. To lose someone like that would be terrible.
By teaching people about the world and suffering, death, and forgiveness Morrie can finally rest well. Morrie teaches that it's better to talk through things than fight and suffer. Also to think about reality, and the fact that you can not run from death and have to face the things that happen. The final thing he teaches is to forgive before it's too late. This is important for the better of people, and mainly because this world is messed up.
