My father is like Morrie because my father teaches me life lessons on what he has been through in his childhood and on his relations with family and friends . My father never gives up on me and will stay with me till the end . My father takes care of my brothers and me . He would even drive for hours too reach us . My Father has allot of loving people with his side , They would do any thing for him and so would I . Morrie taught Albom what is really important in life . Morrie said that love , respect , and forgiving each other are the most important things in life . My father says the same thing but in a different way . My father says it in a way that involved a situation in his life that changed him or made him think things through that helped him . My father helped me through rough times about school and other things . Morrie loves everyone he was around with just like my father . Mmy father loves me just like Morrie loved Albom . That ’ s why Morrrie is like my father too me

MY MORRIE :
{ Quote }: “ My mom and I , just starting to become closer , only to be separated without warning ”.
{ Name }: Jacqueline McRae Jenkins { Relationship }: Mother
{ Specific moment }: A couple months before she passed away , my mom gave me her secret journal she kept with her while she was pregnant with me . It contained private thoughts she had and told humorous memories she shared with people around her .
^^^ { Why } - This symbolizes our relationship , because my mom and I loved to keep little secrets and stories to each other . So , to give her secret journal to me and not anyone else means a lot to me .
LESSON : My mom told me a few years ago to never harm the people you care for , because they ’ re all you have in the end . If one day , your in trouble , and you need a friend to help you , but you have been cruel to them all your life , they will be least likely to come to your aid . So , it is always important to treat them the best .
