You !!

Yes, I got a place to stand 
a place, that is your heart, 
the heart that holds enough 
enough and real enough
the strength to forgive my mistake, 
to tie up and hold my trust 
when it tries to wander off.

5 stars: Tuesdays with Morrie


Tuesdays with Morrie, autobiographical non-fiction by Mitch Albom, is one among his various international bestseller novels. It topped the New York Times Non-fiction Bestsellers of 2000. The novel is divided into six chapters where the various aspects of life are described by a professor to his student during his last days and is definitely worth of time.

Morrie Schwartz could have been anyone, but the writer really felt that a teacher would do justice to the role. He quotes a saying by Henry Adams, "A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops." Certainly, this book is about a teacher, long forgotten by one of his students, Mitch Albom himself, now an influential journalist as of today, and the relation that was too was forgotten as a matter of time.

Wet Kisses !!

"Giving kisses, running, playing, stealing shoes and socks, exploring, laying beside my favorite human, greeting everyone with enthusiasm, wagging my tail. Boy, life can be exhausting !! And I love every minute of it !!"
