Last Saturday, I went and saw the most amazing play I've EVER seen, sorry Willden. BYU put on a beautiful show called Tuesdays with Morrie and I was blown away. It is a story about life and death, living and loving, mostly taking the time to learn. To listen. To experience life and not just let it pass you by. I've been thinking about this post for a while now because I wanted to get it just right. I wanted to make sure that I said what I waned to say.
Never in my life have I felt so moved by a piece of art. I cried through the entire thing. You know from the beginning that Morrie is going to die. What you don't know is that he is not only going to teach Mitch how to be a better person, but he is going to teach you too.
I am going to take advantage of every moment. To be silly sometimes. To be serious sometimes. To love with my whole heart. To never give up on myself. To let the people around me know that I care. To help others know who I am and what I know to be true. I want to be like Morrie. I want to be able to face my last days on this earth knowing that I lived a good life, that I was a good person and that I left my mark on the world. I want to be able to face my Father in Heaven knowing that I did the things I needed to do, that I was the daughter that he needed me to be.
So, thank you BYU, for giving me Tuesdays with Morrie so that my life could be changed.
