Farewell Steve Jobs

This is an absolutely beautiful and inspiring speech from Stanford University's 2005 Commencement by Steve Jobs.

 It speaks to me so loudly and truthfully.  I agree so whole heartedly with his message:

 

‎"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.". - Steve Jobs

Beautiful.  Thank you Steve.  And Rest In Peace.
