For Mitch Albom, that person was Morrie Schwartz, his college professor from nearly twenty years ago. Maybe, like Mitch, you lost track of this mentor as you made your way, and the insights faded, and the world seemed colder. Wouldn't you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you, receive wisdom for your busy life today the way you once did when you were younger? |

Mitch
Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months
of the older man's life. Knowing he was dying, Morrie visited with Mitch
in his study every Tuesday, just as they used to back in college. Their
rekindled relationship turned into one final "class": lessons in how to
live.
|
||
|
Tuesdays
with Morrie is a magical chronicle of their time together, through which
Mitch shares Morrie's lasting gift with the world.

Maybe
it was a grandparent, or a teacher, or a colleague. Someone older, patient
and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, helped
you see the world as a more profound place, gave you sound advice to
help you make your way through it.
