I Miss Randy Pausch

Posted on July 25, 2009 by jeff noel

I miss Randy Pausch.

Why?

Because he inspired me, and countless others, to rethink the way we live our daily lives.

His battle with Pancreatic cancer ended one year ago today.  He was 47 when he said goodbye to his wife and three children, all under six years old.

He was fully aware he was going to die, and he used that, I believe, to find an elevated reason to live.

Wanna know a secret about this whole scenario?

We are all dying.

The challenge for most of us?  We don’t use this fact to find an elevated reason to live.

Carpe diem, jeff noel :)
