We're Tuesday People

This week in soc class we watched Tuesday's with
Morrie a story about a dying soc teacher who's talking to his former student, Mitch, about the meaning in life and that you "don't know how to live until you know how to die." We learn from Morrie that death isn't something we should be sad about, it's just a transition and that relationships go on. The norms of our culture teaches us that mourning involves a lot of sadness and rememberance. Morrie tried to teach Mitch that death isn't something to fear. Grief on thr other hand is something everyone feels, even Morrie sometimes feels the sadness of his dying. Morrie also talks about dependence as something we shouldn't be ashamed of.
