Tuesdays With Morrie

Our society tells us things that make us feel bad about ourselves. In “Tuesdays with Morrie” by Mitch Albom, Morrie describes how our culture doesn’t make people feel good about themselves and that we would be better by creating our own society. Our society tries to influence us by telling us what we should wear or how much money we should have. Morrie believes that the way we spent our money on useless things in life is just unrealistic and that we should pay more attention to our friends and family. Our society tries to make us feel good about ourselves by getting us to buy products that supposedly make us look better but all it does is make us look unattractive. Morrie says that people are unhappier than he is and this is because our society is so stereotypical now a day and they use things like Photoshop to make things look better when they actually make things looks worse than they already are. Society tries to make us feel good about how much money we have but all its doing is making us selfish in life. If you were rich you would be bragging to people about how much money you have and that’s the wrong thing to do, you should be appreciative and thankful for how much money you have. In the end society keeps trying to make you feel good about yourself but what it’s really doing is making you feel worse about yourself with how much stuff the give to you.
