The World As I See It

The world I see isn't black, the world I see isn't white. The world I see has so many different shades, shapes, hues, colors and angles, some black and dark like death and hate, some bright, beautiful and promising like love and compassion. I feel like these "colors" are constantly changing not just to me but also to the world around. My view is there is good and there is bad, but all that is subjective to me. What is good and what is bad might be completely different to somebody else. My bright green might be somebody's black and somebody's bright green might be my black. While I may not like or understand everyones choices I accept them because I know everybody's view is different. The World I "see" I know is only a fraction of whats really there, whats really going on. Everybody has their own story, their own feelings, reasons for them being who they are. Everybody "see's" the world differently and thats what i see.

The world you see, is truly only seen through your eyes.

Tuesdays With Morrie Review

Tuesdays With Morrie was overall a very touching book. The story of a withering life, a teacher who wants to give even when it seems there is nothing more to give. The book takes place for the most part in Morrie's study in his house. Morrie was a sociology teacher who loved things like dancing, music and specially eating. the book follows Morrie's life after he is diagnosed with ALS. A disease that slowly paralyzes his body while leaving his mind and soul completely in tact. The doctors give him two years to live. A student of Morrie's who promised to keep in touch after his graduation (but failed to) finds out about all of that through Nightline, a TV show. He visits Morrie and their old friendship is almost instantly rekindled. Morrie then begins to talk with Mitch and teaches him life lessons every Tuesday while his condition worsens. It is Morries last class and Mitch is the only student.

I enjoyed the book thoroughly, it made me rethink some aspects of my life mainly how materialistic it is. The book touches heavily on topics like love, culture, family, acceptance, life and death. I would defenently recommend this book to friend to read. i recommend it do every single person to read. I don't think theres anybody this book can't touch.
