Mickey and his classmates were watching a very exciting ball game in college. Everyone was very excited and shouted: "We are the first, we are the first..." This is the teacher Murray asked inexplicably. : "What's wrong with being second."
When Mickey visited Morrie who was about to die many years later, he was afraid that his former teacher would no longer recognize him as an ordinary student. When he saw Morrie, he was explaining who he was. At that time, Morrie suddenly smiled: "I haven't seen you for 16 years. Don't you hug me?" (I don't know why, when I saw this, tears filled my eyes.) In
college, Mickey's group of students Sitting in the classroom waiting for the teacher Morrie to start his lectures, waiting for a long speech, a series of witty words. And Morrie didn't say a word, and it just passed ten minutes...fifteen minutes...twenty minutes...the teacher finally said: "What happened here?" (Why does silence make people Disturbed.)
Mickey asked the teacher, "You're running out of time, don't you feel sad?"
Morrie said, "Death is just one of the things that make people sad, and unhappy life is one of them."
Morrie said: " Although I'm dying, I'm lucky that I can still take the last lesson."
Mitch asked the teacher, "Is it about death?"
"No, it's about living."
(The old man's open-mindedness made me sad again. Happy again)
"When you know how to die, you know how to live."
Murray told Mitch to remember to visit him. Mickey said that he was busy with work and had no time to spare. After listening, Mori said, "Let me show you what time is." After speaking, he took a deep breath and counted to twelve from one breath, and then he said with a deep breath, "I was able to count last week. At sixteen, young people like you will definitely be able to count to one hundred."
Mickey was always reluctant to bring up death in his chats with Morrie, who asked him why. Mitch said, "People are afraid to talk about death."
Murray wondered: "Why do people feel comfortable in denying the truth?"
Murray said to Mickey; "You are running all the time, but do you stop to think Well, what are you running away from?"
Morrie told Mickey a story: "There was a little wave that lived freely in the ocean. One day he saw other waves crashing on the shore, and he was afraid, became very sad. Another wave asked him: 'Why are you so sad?' The little wave said: 'Because we're all going to the sea, we're all going to be nothing, don't you understand?' Another wave said: 'It's you who don't understand, you're not a spray, you're part of the ocean.'"
An excerpt from Morrie's favorite poem --
All I have is a voice
To undo the folded lie,
The romantic lie in the brain
Of the sensual man-in-the-street
And the lie of Authority
Whose buildings grope the sky:
There is no such thing as the State
And no one exists alone;
Hunger allows no choice
To the citizen or the police;
We must love one another or die.
—September 1.1939-by Wystan Hugh Auden
A few days before his death, Mickey asked Murray how you would spend it if you had a healthy day. Morrie thought about it and said, "Get up in the morning, do your morning exercise, have a delicious breakfast of sweet rolls and tea. Then go for a swim, invite friends to lunch, I only invite one or two at a time, so we We can talk about their families, their problems, and their friendship. Then I will go for a walk in the park, look at the natural colors, look at the beautiful birds, and enjoy the long-lost nature. In the evening, we will go to the restaurant to enjoy Good pasta and maybe duck - I love duck - the rest of the time is spent dancing. I'll dance with everyone until I'm exhausted. Then go home and get a good night's sleep The
students were surprised when they heard this, and quickly asked, "That's all? "The old man replied, "That's all. "
That's all I'm going to write. Everyone should watch the film and think about it for themselves. Or interested friends can go and read the book of the same name that stayed on the US bestseller list for four years.
This film, or this What touched me the most about this book was not the story itself, but because it all happened. Some people are afraid that I will be called vulgar. Is a story really so important? Some time ago, there was also a kind person at home The old man is gone, that's why I watched this movie so emotionally, and the tears I didn't expect. I have seen the departure of my loved ones, and I have witnessed death in real life, and then I deeply understand certain things. You knew it was going to happen, but you couldn't accept it when it happened.
But when I saw Morrie die at the end of the film, it was like a re-enactment, and I didn't cry. I think this is the biggest gain that the film brought me. It was the open-mindedness about death that Morrie gave me that kept my tears from falling. Under Morrie's teaching, Mickey learned about life and recovered his love. I also grew up quietly while watching the film. So I hope that more people can watch this movie, this book, and meet on Tuesday to listen to this last course, the content of which is called life.
