The following post is taken directly from my hand-printed Reader's Journal. I will be sharing these reflections each week on the Rivera Runs Through It blog. The date at the end of each post is the date of the original writing, which is typically the date I completed the book. The reflections are short, but represent my initial reactions to a book, a brief summary of the book or the questions it raised for me at the time. I hope you enjoy this segment in my blog and feel free to comment on what you read here.
Tuesdays With Morrie by Mitch Albom
OK, so I am still crying. What a great book about all the things we carelessly pass by in life. Morrie Schwartz, through Mitch Albom, educates each reader on how to live a truly rich life. "Once you learn to die, you learn to live" is one of the sayings from Mitch. However, once we have read this book and taken this advice, it is no longer necessary to wait for our deathbeds to have a revelation.
