week 8

This week in sociology we watched the movie Tuesdays With Morrie and compared to american culture in general.Tuesdays With Morrie is about Mitch and how he Really used all his time for and never shows time for anyone else but when his favorite collage teacher Morrie is diagnosed with ALS he makes time to go see  him  and learns value lessons every time he sees him and helps Mitch beat some of his greatest fears.In the world today just like in Tuesdays With Morrie many people fear death.It is in our culture to not want people to die.We want them to live forever.We also fear for the one dying for what will happen after you die.It is just also hard to execpt that the person is gone but there teachings and memories live on in the world.

I also have fear of death.I was scared too abut what happens after you die.Just this past summer my great uncle died of cancer and knowing he was gone scared me.I really did not understand what will happen next now that he is gone.But I still have all the memories that we had togther.That is something death can never take away.
