Writing Your Epitaph

It’s past midnight and I just hit that mid-life recharge. You know what I’m talking about; that point where the meaning of you life has been once again revealed, re-defined, and given more purpose than you can possibly every achieve in your lifetime … but how you are going to try. Those few that know me, and I mean know me well, know that I’ve done a lot with my life so to come upon this moment is, well, I’m still trying to catch my breath, slow down my heart, and stop my mind from racing.

Ever hear of Dr. Randy Pausch? Professor from Carnegie Mellon University? One of the giants of virtual reality among other hundreds of attributes. Well, if not, you can add one more. He’s the man that have given the now legendary “The Last Lecture”.

If you don’t know who that is, time to dump your video games and porn clips and pick up a book again. Seriously, people like this are too important to ignor.

Look. You may not like me or what I say. You may disagree with every breath I take and would be more than happy to point your cursor at me and do a quick CTL-ALT-DEL when I walk into the room; but for a moment, forget all that and just go to this site and watch this lecture.



If you’re smart, find a way to record it, put it on a disk and give a copy to you kids, your friends, you enemies, anyone and everyone you know. This, my friends, is the true secret to happiness and to life and no matter who you are or what you mean to me, just watch this. It will change your life …
