I was astonished by his complete lack of self-pity. Morrie, who could no longer dance, swim, bathe, or walk; 

Morrie, who could no longer answer his own door, dry himself after a shower, or even roll over in bed. How could he be so accepting?

I watched him struggle with his fork, picking at a piece of tomato, missing it the first two times-- a pathetic scene, and yet I could not deny that sitting in his presence was almost magically serene, the same calm breeze that soothed me back in college.
