but y u recommend this book to me?
from the website:
Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher, or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, helped you see the world as a more profound place, gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it.

Morrie Schwartz's reflections
*
Accept the uncertainties, contradictions and tension of opposites in your life.
*
Entertain the thought and feeling that the distance between life and death may not be as great as you think.
*
Talk openly about your illness with whoever wants to talk with you about it.
*
Resist the temptation to think of yourself as useless. It will only lead to depression. Find your own ways of being and feeling useful.
*
After you have wept and grieved for your physical losses, cherish the functions and the life you have left.
*
Watch for and resist the creeping urge to withdraw from the world.
*
Let sadness, grief, despair, depression, bitterness, rage, resentment -- all the negative emotions that arise in you -- penetrate you. Stay with them as
long as you can or until they run their natural course. But do not brood about them. Become reinvolved in life as soon as you can.
*
Be grateful that you have been given the time to learn how to die.
*
Accept and indulge your passivity and dependency when necessary. But be independent and assertive when you can and need to be.
*
If you can't have large victories or achievements, be grateful and celebrate small ones.
*
Find what is divine, holy, or sacred for you. Attend to it, or worship it, in your own way.
*
This is the time to do a life review, to make amends, to identify and let go of regrets, to come to terms with unresolved relationships, to tie up loose
ends.
*
Learn how to live, and you'll know how to die; learn how to die, and you'll know how to live.
