Long-Answer Response

1. Morrie reads the newspaper so that he can feel like he has things in common with others suffering. However, he stops because he gets more enjoyment out of the conversations about those that he is with and from listening to music. Not focusing so much on the suffering of others allows him to be more present at the end of his life. (Chapter 8)

2. Morrie welcomes Ted Koppel numerous times throughout the final days of his life to interview him. Additionally, he responds to letters responding to his story. He also welcomes many different visitors. All of this suggests that Morrie will have a lasting legacy, especially in that he knew that his conversations with Mitch would turn into a book.
