I found a video on YouTube of Ted Koppel's interview with Morrie Schwartz. It's over an hour long, so I don't expect you to watch the whole thing! However, you can watch as much as you like - I'd recommend at least the first ten minutes or so.
What do you find most striking about Morrie? Is he like you expected from what we've read so far? What lesson from the video strikes you? Click "Comments" at the top of this post and leave your name and response. After leaving a comment, feel free to search YouTube for more videos of Mitch Albom or Morrie (there are a lot!). You can also go to Quizlet and make a study set for Week 3 vocabulary. -Jenny

Morrie reminds all of us to reflect, reach out to those we love and care about, and have "the talk" about the realities of our inevitable deaths. He reinforces the idea that love transcends all infirmities, and that compassion connects all of us to our humanity.

Morry was talking about dead instead of being worried he was so happy he was never worried he was going to die soon. He was so happy u never saw him sad the whole time he was smiling through the video. For Morry was natural talking about death he knew more than anyone about death

The interview with Morrie is inspiring, makes you think and reflect on many things about life. But also how can Morrie be so strong, and explain death without breaking down.

the only part that i honestly really liked was the part where he said its important to have a good support system and how he went on to say what a good support system was for him. It was an important part for me because i feel like a good and or bad support system could make you weither bad support or good

Im on the middle the history, but Morrie was a strong man and he had clear ideas. a man with great feeling towards life. without fear of dead. " HE WAS PART OF THE OSEAN ".

My opinion about Mitch is He's a brave person and he is not afraid to die, and He feel part of the ocean like he been told, the part what break my heart was the letter that he wrote about the loneless and grow without his parents.
