"Tuesdays With Morrie"

I've actually finished this book a few days ago. But I just couldn't find the words, nor the time to share my thoughts about this book.

After reading and hearing high praises about Mitch Albom's books (the other significant one being "The Five People You Meet In Heaven"), I decided to grab a copy of "Tuesdays With Morrie" at Kinokuniya last weekend.

It was such a simple book, with words from the heart.
And it moved me beyond words.

I started the book on Sunday night, and finished on Monday evening. On Monday morning, I was already half-way through, and I was faced with mixed emotions: one part of me wanted to finish up the book - the words were beautiful and touched me deeply. On the other hand, I didn't want the book to end - I felt like I was going to say goodbye to such wonderful writing..

Needless to say, I was crying my heart out in the final chapters. And I when I talked to Sheils on the phone (a few minutes after finishing the book), I know she could hear the tears in my voice.

So I've decided that I'm going to share this book with some of the people in my life. I've already given a copy to Al today, and I'm going to buy more copies of the book some time soon. Abah is reading my copy.. hmm, maybe I'll buy a copy for him to keep close by.

I'm still looking for "The Five People You Meet In Heaven" - the book is sold out at MPH Alpha Angle. Perhaps when I go to Kinokuniya this weekend I'll be able to get myself a copy.

There's sooooo many things we go through in life. Sometimes we just forget the simple things.

Reading this book made me realise that, sometimes what we deem important are not quite so urgent.
And what we think we can push aside, and to be K.I.V.'ed ... well, perhaps those are the things we should've assigned 'Top Priority'.

It's a great book! I'm recommending this to everyone.
So.. what are you guys waiting for? Go buy a copy.
Or borrow one. Hehehe.. :)) Read up!!
