Tuesdays With Morrie -- Work

So far is the movie, Mitch can be described as someone who is overwhelmed with the amount of work that he does. Mitch is the main character as writes sporting reports for the city of Detroit. For his job, he is required to travel the country in order to capture the right quote said by a particular person at an exact moment. This appears to be the only way that Mitch knows how to live. He has a girlfriend, but he rarely has time to spend with her. A really short summary of the movie follows...

The movie Tuesdays With Morrie is all about a man that Mitch knew back from college; this is because this man was Mitch's teacher. This man is very well known around the college campus that he worked at. The teacher's name is Morrie. After graduating, Mitch promised Morrie that he would come back and visit him one day, but it wasn't until over a decade later that Mitch actually stepped up to his promise. The reason why Mitch eventually went to visit him was because he was slowly dying. Eventually, Mitch begins to go every Tuesday and learns the routine of taking care of him. Soon later, Mitch brings a tape recorder so that Morrie can be remember for time to come.

Throughout this movie, Mitch really values hard work. In the beginning of the movie he is a diligent worker when it comes to his job and reporting sports, but as the movie goes on, he begins to devote his time to Morrie because he realizes that every Tuesday that he sees him may be the last. Just about everyone values either hard work, achievement, or success throughout some point of their life. All of this starts when someone is in high school, and in some cases, even before that. It goes from being in an easy junior high school class to being in college level classes at a high school in just a few summers; it is very hard to make a change that fast. From personal experience, I understand how hard it can be taking some classes and working extremely hard to complete a homework assignment; however, that is not what I value, I value the success that I get as a good grade. It is true that grades are not everything, but, when it comes to school, they matter. With success can come further achievement.
