Aphorism

"Death ends a life, not a relationship." What Morrie meant by this was that even though the person is no longer with you, you still have the same relationship despite the fact that they are gone. The relationship doesn't just dissapear with them, because you still have it with you in your memories.

The relationship I can think of that relates to this is between Kreatcher and Regulus Black from the Harry Potter series. The reason that they came to mind is because, and I haven't read the last book in a long time but as I remember it, Kreatcher had a very loyal relationship with Regulus because he was kinder to him than the others in his family. When Regulus went ot the cave to replace the horcrux locket with a fake replica, he had to drink the poison from the dish it was in and died. He told Kreatcher to protect the locket and keep it safe. When the order of the Pheonix was cleaning out the House of Black they found the locket, but Kreature stole it away and kept it in his little cubbord and tried to protect it best as he could. This shows that he cared enough about Regulus, even after his death, to actively keep his word, showing that their relationship did not really die.

I think that this is sort of true because you do still have your memories of the person an dof the things you did with them and what they were like. Sure, you can't make any new memories with them anymore because they are gone, but because of that you should try to hold onto the ones you made before their passing. I of course don't really know if this works because no one particularly close to me has ever died yet but some day I'll probably be able to put this quote to personal pratice. 

My picture is of Mitch having visited Morrie's grave. There are three hygrangeas, the flowers in Morries studdy, and three because Tuesday is the third day of the week. The scene I drew is how I pictured Morrie's gravesite to be when he described it.
