Tuesdays with Morrie: Love, Mortality, and the Illusion of Success

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.This episode explores Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom as a systems-level reflection on how societies define success, value people, and relate to death. Through weekly conversations with Morrie Schwartz as he dies from ALS, the book exposes how cultural norms encourage emotional avoidance, overwork, and delayed fulfillment.Rather than resisting death, Morrie uses it as a lens to reveal what modern systems obscure — that meaning is relational, not transactional, and that attention is the most finite resource we have.📺 Watch the Deep Dive and Mini Explainer on YouTube:👉 https://youtu.be/2ca9HtiftiU❤️ Support Crisis in Perception on Patreon:👉 https://patreon.com/CrisisInPerceptionAuthor Support LineIf these ideas resonate, consider reading the book yourself or borrowing it from your local library.
