number 11

It is the twelfth Tuesday and on this day the two men talk about forgiveness. This was an interesting topic to Mitch; did a man like Morrie, on his death bed have anyone he wanted to forgive before he died? With some hesitation Mitch asked Morrie, he told Mitch a story about an old friend named Norman, they had been friends and did everything together but when Norman and his wife moved away and did not call or try to keep in touch and Morrie was very hurt. Although over the years Morrie did see Norman a few times he told Mitch that he was unable to forgive him and could never look past the fact that Norman didn’t try to stay closer. He also told Mitch that a few years earlier Norman died of cancer, as the tears began to roll down his face he told Morrie how sad it made him that he was never able to forgive Norman and now he would never have the chance.
