Sufferings and misfortunes may loom large on the horizon. They may make life worthless. Despair and disappointment may look endless. It does not mean one should cease to live. Deep and dark clouds of failures may eclipse the sun of success‚ but for how long! Failures and frustrations must give way to hope and happiness. The words of the poet convey a note

Morrie S. ~ “Accept yourself‚ your physical condition‚ and your fate as they are at the present moment.” During this quote‚ Morrie is clearly weakening and learning about ALS. He is talking to Mitch about his experience but also calming him by telling him that he can accept what is happening. What this quote means to me is more than just talking about you physical ability‚ but also you mental ability too.
