Such a beautiful book. It really touched me and changed the way I looked at certain things. 

• Feels like a philosphy book with a really good story on top
• I love how the dialouge is formatted along with how it is just written/spoken by the characters
• I notice a lot of aspects from DBT/CBT therapy in here which I think is really interesting and cool. I like that those aspects are included because it helps make those ideas more digestable and accessible to understand. 
• God its so depressing in the beginning, but honestly, Morrie as a character and how he paints life, makes it NOT depressing. He just shares how life is, and how to accept death.  His messages are extremely powerful.
• Just so many important lessons and such good quotes that I'm gonna be carrying with me for the rest of my life. I really think that everyone can get one important takeaway from this book. 

Hard to put down once you start, although the story itself feels kinda slow, its not because you're literally speeding through it that's how good this book is. Finished it in pretty much one day.
