while browsing on the books that interest me, tuesdays with morrie was the first icon i clicked at. it still has the power to evoke the same heavy feeling i felt before. i don't own a copy of the book, i borrowed my sister's. as i started reading page one, i just can't put it down for later, anticipating the rest of the story. if i may share a funny anecdote, when i was reading through the last few pages of the book, i was riding a public utility vehicle on my way to work, it was so emotional i cannot help my tears from falling. i couldn't care less if the other passengers see me crying, i just have to release the emotions welling up inside. i was sniffling all the way to the office, i recall. i really felt the loss at the time. thank you myLot for giving me this opportunity to reminisce on those feelings. i may just borrow my sister's book again. definitely.

I'm sure you won't regret every page of it. Enjoy! By the way, don't forget to post your comments, thoughts after finishing the book.

The first time i borrowed the book from the library, i have only read few pages. It was due to alot of requirements i have to finish and i am very busy. Only this March i had the chance to read it. I borrowed from my friend. It is very inspiring and it really made me cry. I am planning to buy my own copy and read it again. Definitely a good book and is worth buying. :)

like you i really like this book . Tears continously rolling down my eyes every time i read (3 times) this book. You know i first learned this book, when oprah winfrey show promoted it. Then I bought it and i'll you tell its worth buying and reading. Somehow it relates to all of us since almost all of us are very busy with our careers and it takes someone to let us realize what we are missing. It also tells us to be realistic- all of us will die and we should prepare ourselves how we want it to be .
