Miller says, in Brocke Clarke’s realistic fiction novel, Exley, that “M.R. had his arm around Z’s shoulder and Z. was smiling, like he knew, now, somehow that everything would be okay. And it was. Z was still alive… I knew what had worked for Z. and M.R. would work for my dad and Exley” (25).

Tuesdays with Morrie tells the real story of Morrie Schwartz. Morrie was a university professor who was dying of ALS (Lou Gehrig 's disease).

Mitch is intrigued by Morrie 's attitude towards death and his life lessons, so he decides to visit Morrie again next Tuesday and record what Morrie has to say. This turns into a weekly meeting between Mitch and Morrie and eventually these meetings were turned into the book, Tuesdays with Morrie. Mitch - the author of the book and Morrie 's old student.

In a small way he is telling his daughter to live her life as fully as possible without fear of the world trying to destroy her joy. The whole story began with the description of a jail then it moved

The project I chose to create based on the book Tuesday's with Morrie was a aphorism cookie jar. My cookie jar is painted grey and it will have Tuesday's with Morrie painted on the front. It has aphorisms from almost all the Tuesdays written on small pieces of paper inside the jar. A few Tuesdays instead of aphorisms there are summaries of what Morrie talked about instead. On the back of the piece of paper it has what I think the aphorism means. The reason I chose to do this as my project was because in the book one of the things Morrie loved was food and i love food too, so I wanted to choose something that I think we would both enjoy to eat, cookies.

The trait of stubbornness regarding Elizabeth, and the trait of yearning for a better life described in Mitch, are two traits that both negatively affect the character's outlook, and the plot of the book.

These characters are distinctively different, where Morrie is more of an accepting, and glorious person, whereas Mitch is negatively yearning for a better life. Mitch took all of Morrie’s classes and was thrilled for him to be his teacher.

In the book, Tuesdays with Morrie the readers follow the lives and relationship of Morrie Schwartz and Mitch Albom. Morrie was a professor in Brandeis University where Mitch attended. The story goes on as to how they lose touch over the years and eventually find each other again and build a strong relationship. This friendship begins when Mitch finds out Morrie is sick and his health is slowly deteriorating. Over the weeks, the two-new found friend will hold conversations about love, life and family.
