    love. i think that love is the most important thing to have to understand the meaning of life. because without love we wouldnt be able to care for and be kind to the people around us. if we didnt know love then we wouldnt be able to know anything else. we are brought up with it in our lives, but if some peoples parents or family dont show emotions such as love they might grow up not having that emotion and hating everything and everyone

    The topic i believe is the most important to me has to be Death obviously. Like always i believe that if you dont know how to die then you dont know how to live. You must know that you need to be prepare for insane mental and physical pain at that moment, you must know that living is not the hardest task in life, dying is. You must undertand that your not always going to be living, your not always going to wake up and have the same daily routine. Everything changes. Everyone knows they have to die one day or another so the critical part of it is knowing that your day is coming soon.

    I think death is the most important topic to understand to live a compassionate and responsive life because Morrie states that "You have to learn to die before you can live", and learning about death and overall accepting death will allow you to see more clearly in your life it will allow you too not take everyday challenges for granted because everything in life and death will inevitably teach you a lesson and make you a more brilliant person in your life to come and Understanding death as morrie said will let you live

    i think in order to understand life first you have to understand death.
    Death is something that you can't fix so you have to appreciate the people you are arround of sometimes you forget about those things. so its important to tell the persons you love that you love them and that you are really thankfull for everything they have done.

    I Thing forgiveness, because if we keep the resentment We are not going to resolved the problem and also our life going to be full of bad problems althought we always going to have problem in life because if we dont have problem BUT then IF there are not forgiveness we dont have exactly life to live.

    I think Family is the most important thing in order to understand life. Family should be eveyones first prioritey. Friends and girlfriends come and go but your family will always be there for you. You need your family to help you understand life. your family will give you advice on how to be sucessful in life. They can also tell you about their own experinces.

    I believe that the most important topic from the list in order to understand life is death, because once you can understand death and how it works you've be able to live your life in a better way. Most people are scared of death, so they go through life being afraid of dying. To understand life first you have to undrstand death because we're all going to go through it. For example Morrie knows he's going to die, so he can see life different than Mitch does. That changed him in a positive way, and made him live his life in a better way.

    The topic I believe to be the most important in order to understand life is "family." I choose family because family is everything. No one would be successful without a loving and caring family. Family is a bunch of people who care for you and actually support what you do. It makes you feel bad if you don't have anybody to support you. Your family also helps you to do better in life. Yes, you might go through many problems but after a while you start to realize how to solve them. In my opinion, you aren't anything unless you have a family to love you and support you.

    I think death is the most important in order to understand life. Like one of Morrie's aphorisms says know how to live and you'll know how to die, learn how to die and you'll know how to live. This is a good way to understand life if you know how to live death won't prbably effect you in life to be scared. Also if you know how to die you will know how to live a good life this is a good way to understand life. death is a good way to understand life because without death there is no life so you need death and that i think is the most important critical thing. marriage is going to die out mostly all th other critical things are meaningful but at the same time i think that they are meaningless cause fear you mightfear things but even death but it's going to come no matter what you do. So death to me is the most understanding thinmg to me in life.

    I think that both death and having a meaningful life are important in order to understand life. If you can learn to not except but just understand death and why it happens then i think you can survive anything in life, You'll be a much stronger person if you have a good understanding of life and death. Having a meaningful life is also important in having an understanding of life. If you have a meaningful life then to me that means your doing things to give your life purpose, your living and working up to your full potentional.

    forgiveness is the important thing in life because if you don't no how to forgive in life. you want recive the kindness you want. also it is important because if you don't forgive the one you love and if they past away you wouldn't be able to forgive them because of the gruge you had between one another you feel guilt inside of you because you didn't forgive them.

    i think the most important issue that morrie talks about that talks about life is death. I think this is the most important issue because you have to go through life in order to die. Everybody has there own life story but i think when morrie talks about death it will be the most important subject because he will go over all his life acheivements.

    I thing life because like Morrie said that you need to know how to die to kno how to live. alot of people fear death and dont know what to do when someone does die. learning how to die and be able to deal with it could help u alot with living. People should fear death they should just deal with it because its life and its what happings to people
