Tuesdays with Morrie

Morrie talks about how everybody is afraid of death. That is one thing we all fear even though that we all know that someday that we are all going to die at one point. Morrie tells Mitch why there is no point of being afraid and why we should just accept it. I do think Americans are afraid of dying because we are afraid of leaving the ones we love behind and we are afraid of dying because you never know when it is going to happen. We Americans like to know what is going on in the world not what is going to happen sometime in the future when you do not even know when it is. That moment scares us. I think what Morrie says is true, we shouldn't be afraid of dying because it happens to all us. One day I am going to die, yes, I am sad that I will be leaving loved ones behind but I will see them soon in heaven. We will all find each other at the end.
