A lesson learned from "Tuesdays with Morrie"

 Every Monday morning for the past couple of years, Roberson Law staff has received an email from Financial Advisor Phil Herzing titled, "Monday Morning Dose of Hope."  

Following is an excerpt from one of Phil's recent Monday emails that gives an inspiring perspective on death and relationships based on Tuesdays with Morrie, a book that shares the dialogue between Morrie, a man who is dying of Lou Gehrig's Disease, and Mitch, one of Morrie's past college students.

Phil's article published 12/12/11:

Morrie keeps telling his younger friend, "If you know how to die, then you'll know how to live."  This is especially hard for us, since we spend so much mental energy avoiding the simple truth that we will one day die ourselves.  As Morrie puts it, "Everyone knows they're going to die, they just don't believe it."  How are we supposed to learn how to die when we can't even allow ourselves to focus on the subject?

Further, what lessons are you eager to pass on before your time comes?  Have you decided how you plan to say the things that need saying?  Or will you be one of those people who goes to their own grave with much of their song still trapped inside?
