Tuesdays with Morrie

  1. The new addition that was in morrie’s house was The Oxygen machine. Morrie was attaching a plastic tube to his nostrils in order to get some air. Mitch did not really like the idea that Morrie was connected to some kind of machinery so he’d always tries to not look at it.
  2. I think what Morrie ment is that the closer you are to death the more you start to appreciate life. You learn more about yourself when you on the brink of your life and start to make more definitive decisions. You focus more on your life and your needs that some non-obligatory stuff like work.
  3. If Mitch would think to himself that he is going to die, he would be only forced to think about his work and other materialistic needs.

I’ve recently read a news article that is primarily focuses on animation. It was about an upcoming animated movie from Irish company Cartoon Saloon named Wolfwalkers that is directed by Tomm Moore. Cartoon Saloon had made some movies in the past that had won many awards in past years. One of their best known animated films are The Secret of Kells and Song Of The Sea. I highly recommend these movies. As an artist, I really like Tomm Moore’s and Cartoon Saloon works because they are so vibrant and have a special artstyle and I am very exited about their upcoming movie.
