In the film Meet Tuesday, Morriswartz spent his entire life as an educator.
Although frostbite was like a candle lit inside Morrie, it constantly melted his nerves, legs, thigh muscles, and trunk muscles, and finally turned into a pile of solidified wax oil. However, Morrie's conscious will is outside the hard shell of his body, and he is free to communicate with Mickey.
In other words, educational wisdom is a state of balance between "receiving" and "letting go" for Morrie. "Receiving" refers to the educational quality and educational emotions precipitated in Morrie's heart.
If viewers watch the film carefully, it is not difficult to find that this noble quality is contagious and emotionally conveyed not only to Mickey, but also to Murray's family and tv viewers who watch and interview Mori's condition.
At this point, the so-called "release" is a series of educational methods implemented by Morrie in his meetings and conversations with Mickey.
Professor Morrie carefully observed Mickey's psychological changes over the years and a series of life problems encountered, and through the implementation of targeted heuristic questions and answers, conveyed the meaning of life to Mickey, allowing him to gradually make peace with life. The education that takes place between the two is full of freedom, harmony, and open creation. A lifelong teacher, a young man who has lost his way, the last course between them has infinite value.
Mitch learns of Morrie's illness and visits Morrie again 16 years after graduation, but he is still haunted by his work and always inadvertently looks at his watch and makes a phone call; Morrie refuses all the calls he visits at this time, enjoying the reunion time with the students. At the time of farewell, Morrie asks Mickey if he can take the time to visit again, and Mickey replies euphemistically with business and distance as a pretext.
Morrie did not directly express his attitude after listening, but inspired and guided Mickey to learn to stop occasionally to count his breathing, and to feel the pleasure of peace of mind in the pause of breathing. While Mitch doesn't realize it yet, the last lesson between them has quietly begun.
When Mickey returns to Murray's house, the Murray family is preparing a unique "funeral" for Murray. It's not so much a funeral as it is a tribute.
While people all over the world are rushing to help themselves on the hipster tracks, Morrie just stands by the railroad tracks, listening to the whistle of the death train, and is determined to be the most important thing in his life. When our culture and education taboo death, Morrie chose to hold a funeral before his death.
To be alive means to be able to communicate with others, to express one's feelings, and to feel the thoughts of others.
Morrie takes his own unique perspective on age. Our culture has always placed too much emphasis on the value of youth, but few people realize that being young is also a distress. Due to the dissatisfaction and unfulfilling of our existing lives, we are always accustomed to recalling the past. But once we find the meaning of life, we want to see more things, we want to do more things, and we are often more bold to move forward.
If you just blindly look back on the past, it will only make you more and more unwilling to become old, always thinking of competing with your past self, but age cannot compete, because you will eventually become old.
Morrie open-mindedly teaches Mickey that aging does not equal decay, but the entanglement of illness has never been far removed from Morrie. In the face of all this, Morrie is an honest educator and a messenger who bridges life and death. He truly explained to Mickey how the journey made him feel, reminding people how to pack for the journey.
In his view, death should not be an embarrassing thing, and he did not want to grease it, but chose to face his body honestly. Although sometimes when he wakes up in the morning, Morrie will secretly cry and lament his misfortune, this mood will not last long. Morrie always considered himself lucky because he still had time to study, to say goodbye to people, to teach the last lesson.
Behind a class and a funeral, lifelong teachers give life philosophies.
At first, Mickey was afraid to love others, but with Morrie's encouragement, he eventually entered the marriage hall with his girlfriend Jenning.
When it comes to a nearly broken relationship with his girlfriend and a boring journalist job, Mickey is like an injured and lost child, trying to find an exit to relief. Observing Morrie, sensing Mickey's depressed mood, he picks up old photos of his home and tells Mickey about his childhood:
Morrie's mother died young, and his taciturn father was busy with work all day. After the death of his lover, the father lost the ability to show love to others, and even the young Morrie was not allowed to mention the deceased lover. Thanks to the careful care of his stepmother, Morrie gradually understood that the most important thing in life is to learn how to love others and accept love.
Life is a rubber band with a reverse force. The reverse force causes the leather band to move, just as our life is constantly moving forward and backward. In the process of pulling, love is always the winner.
Faced with the emotional difficulties encountered by Mickey, Morrie did not directly tell him the solution, but used his childhood experience to adopt the empathic understanding and motivation of spring wind and rain. Mickey gradually understood that love is rational and that there is no fixed formula for relationships between people. Because love can't win like negotiation, love is to let us care about others as we care about ourselves, understand each other's feelings, and put ourselves in each other's shoes and do what we can for each other.
Morrie's educational wisdom is manifested not only in his wisdom and mastery, but also in his humorous and positive attitude towards life.
Living in his occasional foggy window, the timely emotional wash-up can clear the fog and make peace with life. Death is a bird resting on his shoulders, let nature take its course, live to death, and return to peace. Morrie conveys a positive outlook on life and death to Mickey.
We are all little waves, we all have the same beginning a birth, and we all have the same ending a death. If we can face death calmly, we can make peace with life. In the face of many emotional ups and downs, we can only fully immerse ourselves in it, experience the feelings it brings us, let the tears flow down, and after carefully tasting, we are qualified to say that I have transcended it, I do not have to be controlled by it, and I can face this emotion.
The wise Morrie helps people who are lost like an adult, and accepts gifts from others like a child, eager to return to the true nature of life.
In the film, Morrie uses his final lesson to prop up his proposed tombstone inscription— the title of "a lifelong teacher." Death ended Morrie's life, but it didn't end his curriculum, much less his emotional connection to the world. Could we also try to give ourselves a "Tuesday" a week and tell ourselves how happy we are!
