We were born to die...

But most importantly, we were born to live. Throughout the past week, we had watched a movie by the name of Tuesday's with Morrie. In the movie, an old man by the name of Morrie was saying his last goodbyes to those who meant to him the most; because he knew he was going to die soon. Not only could his student, Mitch, not grasp the concept of him passing away, but he didn't want to either. All Mitch could think about was how many more days Morrie had to live, and what would happen when he passed away. How would he react? Would everyone be in complete despair? But what he seized to realize (on his own), is the life that Morrie lived. He lived the life, that most would have dreamed to have. Always being positive, and never looking back. Living his life to the fullest potential, and just enjoying every waking day he had with those who he loved and loved him back. Society now a days, is only focused on one thing. When death occurs they become blind to the bigger picture; and they forget to take the kind of life they lived into account.
