I never met Steve Jobs. Even still, tonight’s news makes me sad.

From the Apple website:

 

 

Steve Jobs

1955-2011

Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.

 

 

By the way, this is still the best commencement speech I have ever heard…..

 

As Jobs once said:

 

  • Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.”

  • Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.”

  • Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice, heart and intuition.”

  • Stay hungry, stay foolish”

 

Like the company he founded it is about, truth, simplicity, and the freedom to follow your own heart.  

 Rest in peace, Mr. Jobs.
