think about our lives

This movie made me think again seriously about what kind of life I want. The glamorous life in the city may not be liked by everyone, what I like is a quiet life that can arrange time by itself. For example, when you are with the people you love, try to make the lives of the people around you better, expand your influence, and let more people enjoy happiness with friends.

Only by learning to die can you know how to live. If tomorrow was the last day of our lives, what would we do? I think most of the answers are with family, friends, living the life you want. What you have now is not necessarily the most important, it is just that society makes you feel that they are important. One day, I will let go of these things and live the life I really want.
You will be happy only if you keep giving love, which is the meaning of life.

    Mitch Albom: [narrating] One of his favorites was the tango. His own version, of course. Wherever it came from... it wasn't Argentina. Moments like that... he could live in forever. In the summer of he began to notice a few things: shortness of breath... legs giving him a little trouble. But what do you expect at 77?

    Morrie Schwartz: [backs his car into a fence]

    Mitch Albom: The dancing stopped forever in the summer of 1994.
