Is Mitch happy with his life? How do you know?
How is Mitch's life different from how he wanted his life to be when he was in college?
What does Mitch need now to be happy with his life?
My personal view is, I don’t think Mitch is happy with his life. In the novel, it shows me that Mitch focus on working everyday when he graduated from the college. His real life has a big difference from his ideal life. He almost does everything on deadline. Although he had a nice girl, the ending is not that good. How could a person feel happy if his life is full of work? In the novel, the author also wrote that Mitch is busy, but most of his time is unsatisfied. This directly shows Mitch is not happy with his life.
When he is in the college, he hated rich, and he never want to work for money, but actually he doesn’t realize that he is working for money now. He practices music when he was in the college, but when he graduated; he gave up playing it because of work. He used to chase his own frame, when he was in the college, but he wrote about famous athletes chasing theirs when he graduated. He hoped to live in beautiful, inspirational places, but when he graduated, he worked in the same workplace, used the same bank and visited the same barber. His spirit is dying after he graduating. Not only his spirit, but also his dreams are dying. He traded a lot of dreams for a bigger paycheck. All of these show that he became snobbish after he graduated.
Mitch can’t bind himself anymore. He should create his own environment and relax himself. Spending more time on staying with Morrie and friends. Doing something interesting and to try to enrich your own spirit instead of sitting in front of computer and typing. Don’t full of life with work. Also, Mitch has to find the meaning of life. He has to find a way out to make his life abundant.
