Tuesdays with Morrie

As I was looking for a book to help me on the ACT I noticed the title "Tuesdays with Morrie". I looked at the title again, and thought, "this sounds familar. I'm going to get it." So I picked up the book and begin reading it and i could hardly put the book down. The main character in the book has ALS and I knew someone that had ALS that died recently, so i connected with it on a personal level. The book was very inspirational. The guy that had ALS is a professor at a university and even though he knew he was going to die, he didn't look down on himself or wish people would feel sorry for him. He wanted to be around people and talk to people while he was sick so he didn't have to concentrate on the sickness. When asked what he would do if he had one day of perfect health he simply replied, "I would walk up and take a walk in the park, visit friends, and go dancing with friends." He is an amazing guy and I was really inspired by his words and I look at many things differently now. I recommend it to everyone.
