Thank You, Steve Jobs


Its hard to imagine a world without the visionary Steve Jobs who revolutionized our world as we know it.

He has battled cancer for so many years but still continued to come up with ideas that rocked our world.  He was a survivor and to many of us - an idol, an icon and a superhero.

He was best known for his "Think Different" slogan which says:
Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes ... the ones who see things differently... and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the people who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do."
He died at 56.  So young for someone so brilliant.  Had he lived for 10 or 20 more years, I don't think any of us can imagine what he could have still invented.  An icar perhaps (one that would take you where you want to go and plays music depending on your mood)?

 I like this quote from him about death:
"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything -- all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. ... Stay hungry. Stay foolish."   -- Stanford University commencement address, June 2005.
For a life well lived, we thank you Steve Jobs!
