while others who were sick or diseased who were giving up on life or getting depressed .Morrie was happy with his friends and family. Talking to them about their problems, about life and much more.

World, Feeling sorry for ourself, Regrets, Death , Family , Emotion, Fear of Aging , Money, How love goes on , Marriage, Our Culture, Forgiveness and The Perfect Day.

As the subtitle  says An Old Man, A Young Man And Life's Greatest lessons. Indeed this book teaches us about life which we take for granted. 
How it feels when you know that you are gonna die but enjoy each and every moment that is left. No regrets, No giving up, No self pitty , Living the life as it should be with Dignity, Courage, Humor and Composure. 
My favorite line --
" So many people walk around with a Meaningless Life. They seem half-asleep, even when they are busy doing things they think are important. This is because they are chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning in your life is to devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.
