"The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to
let it come in."
Tuesday With Morrie-Mitch Albom
I thought of something else Morrie had told me:
"So many people walk around with meaningless life.
They seem half-asleep, even when they're doing things they think are
important.
This is because they're chasing the wrong things.
The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving
others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to
creating something that gives you purpose and meaning."
I knew he was right.
Tuesday With Morrie-Mitch Albom
I've thought a lot about that night.
I believe my mother saved my life.
I also believe that parents, if they love you, will hold you up safely,
above the swirling waters, and sometimes that means you'll never know what they
endured, and you may treat unkindly, in a way you otherwise wouldn't.
But there's a story behind everything.
How a picture got on the
wall.
How a scar got your face.
Sometimes the stories are simple, and
sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking.
But behind all your stories is
always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begins.
For One
More Day-Mitch Albom
Life is funny, isn't it?
Just when you think you've got it all figured it out, just when you finally
begin to plan something, get excited about it and feel like you know what
direction you're heading in, the paths change, the signs change, the wind blows
the other way, north is suddenly south, and east is west and you're lost.
It is so easy to lose your way, to lose direction.
