Steve Jobs (b. 1955)
Co-founder and CEO of Apple; innovator, visionary, pioneer in the personal computing revolution.
“[Y]ou can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.” (Stanford University commencement address, June 2005)

Signed and shared. :)
Steve Jobs had so much to give us beyond his technology. His thoughts on his approach to life are life changing.
Steve Jobs is @ the top of the list. In his life & in his dying he modeled exceptional human courage, dignity of spirit & one of a kind entrepreneurship. He codified the American ideal in spite of his humble beginnings, or perhaps because of of the same. He made it possible to continue to believe the American dream during his lifetime. One can only hope that the American dream will continue to survive under current conditions.....................
Inspiring, dedicated, tireless, courageous, just a few words out of many to describe what the world has lost. May they all rest in peace. And thank you for all you have done...
noted thanks!
Still missing Amy Winehouse.
Her music touched my soul and her death broke my heart.
Amazing, the power of one.
