Lembu No More

May 7th, 2007 - Monday (55 views)

The weeks of anxiety that built up to this morning was lost in the last days that Morrie shared with Mitch. It was one book that had managed to hold my attention in a long while. That was in between straining my ears listening to the announcements calling candidates to go for the road tests and desperately trying to finish each chapter before my turn came up. This was one book that made me tear and made me chuckle. I could relate to some of the stories. I have been through the death of both parents and a few loved ones. Each of their deaths made me appreciate life more. Although I will be busy for the rest of this week, I will sneak in time to discover the unfolding enlightenment that Morrie has to share with all of us. This is one book that is worth many times more than the price I paid for it. For a moment, passing the driving test did not seem that significant an event. Nevertheless, it is one that will liberate me in many ways.
