Detachment
Detachment is the feeling of cutting oneself from any psychological or emotional
connection to something or someone. The lack of interest that will lead to detachment can either
be of positive or negative causes. In the book Tuesdays with Morrie, an excerpt says ‘‘Maybe
death is the great equalizer; the one big thing that can finally make strangers shed a tear for one
another’’. The words being said by Morrie Schwartz explaining the pain of detachment after a
strong friendship with Mitch (Albom, 2010). The story of Morrie and Mitch brings about the
bigger question: Does self-detachment form a behavior or emotion, have a positive effect or not?
In the book Tuesdays with Morrie, Mitch says that, ‘‘Detachment does not mean you
forego letting the experience penetrate you. On the flipside, you rather let it penetrate you fully.
That is how you are able to leave it’’. (Albom, 2010). Mitch was trying to explain that
detachment is not the end of emotional connection that one had with someone but rather it is a
chance to live and pass on the experience of love to the people we share it with. The death of
Morrie was so emotional to Mitch due to the kind of friendship the two shared. Mitch
specifically learns valuable lessons from the conversations he has previously had with Morrie.
He specifically learns on how to reject popular cultural practices and instead try to develop his
own values. Morrie sees the popular culture as a form of dictatorship which makes the common
man suffer. Hence Mitch tries to free himself from the bondages of corruption to fully assess his
own life as well as rediscover utmost fulfillment. From a poem recited by Morrie, Mitch learns
an important lesson: that in the absence of love, there is a void that can be filled by only loving
human relationships. Morrie states that, when a person abides by love, then they can experience a
higher sense of fulfillment. (Auden 1954-1973). Mitch is now able to reincarnate himself wholly
from a being who was previously motivated by money and possessions to a man now keen for

the passion to love and also emulate the only principles he learnt from man who touched and
changed his life- Morrie.
Personally, I do agree with the importance of detaching oneself from emotions because at
the end of a person life’s it is the experiences that count. The emotion is among the few
connections that one can share with someone and in order to be able to learn how to detach
yourself from emotions then you have a separation from life so as to gain the absolute freedom to
explore a certain way of living.
Most life experiences are what make a person. Detachment can cause either negative or
positive repercussions in one’s life when they choose to engage in it. One of the negative impacts
of detachment may include a feeling of anxiety, fear as well as jealousy because the object, goal
or person you are attached to constantly gives you a remainder that you are not complete without
it even when that could be arguably false. When we cannot make our own life’s decision but on
the basis of others then arises a mental prison. The paradox in life being that in an effort to
become ourselves we have to actually create a separation with others. The advantages of
detachment can be summarized by the person being able to see the bigger picture. Morrie seeks
to experience life wholly and does not care of the impermanence of life itself. He embraces death
because he knows it must come to pass
Born in Saudi Arabia, and raised by my parents there rendered my worldwide view
difficult especially with the language factor, culture as well as religion. Detachment set in when I
had to leave my hometown to come and experience education in a foreign country. My social life
was affected and it prompted me to detach myself from the emotional feeling of growing up in
Saudi Arabia because this was the real situation at hand.

The story of Morrie and Mitch is anchored on friendship as well a tutor-student
relationship. With time passing by between them, it grows intense and as Mitch graduates with
his diploma he approaches his favorite professor and presents him with a monogrammed
briefcase. As much as he promises to keep in contact that does not happen and they meet sixteen
years later when Morrie is diagnosed with a debilitating ailment. Mitch stumbles upon his
favorite professor on the television and then decides to look for him. They meet each Tuesday
regularly and Morrie continues his lectures on ‘‘the meaning of Life’’. The old student brings
food for the professor and together record notes named Tuesdays with Morrie which jokingly
refer to as the ‘‘the last thesis together ‘’ Morrie reiterate why it important to detach from human
emotions. The need to cut from all psychological and emotional connections so that one can see
the bigger picture in life and live wholly in the moment can be quite liberating.
