Steve Jobs

So many tributes have poured in for this one of a kind digital innovator.

He knew he was not going to live long and tried to live life to it's fullest.

Similar was the case of a friend's husband who had cancer and the doctors told him he had a couple of months more to live but he passed away on the day Steve did.

Such news saddens us and often makes us wonder whether this is what life is all about. The End.

Yes. Its about The End one day for all of us yet in our everyday living we hardly 'think' of it. Only when we are sick or hear of someone passing away do these thoughts cross our minds.

This then is the eternal truth. We all have to face our judgement day. Some too early, some later, some very late but we all have a date with our Maker for sure.

Some of us are mentally prepared for it, some get scared even thinking about the end, some don't have the time to think as living life itself occupies most of our time.

Each day is a gift to us. Let us use this gift to be happy and make others around us happy.
