Do you know Steve Jobs ,CEO and maker of iPad...iPhone etc.
He died a billionaire and here are his last words from his sick bed:
Steve Jobs' last words:
**********************
To my friends.
"I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others' eyes, my life is an epitome of success.
However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to.
At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in, have paled and become meaningless in the face of impending death.
You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear the sickness for you.
Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – "Life".
When a person goes into the operating room, he will realize that there is one book that he has yet to finish reading – "Book of Healthy Life".
Whichever stage in life we are at right now, with time, we will face the day when the curtain comes down.
Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends...
Treat yourself well. Cherish others.
As we grow older, and hence wiser, we slowly realize that wearing a $300. or $30.00 watch - - - - - - - they both tell the same time...
Whether we carry a $300 or $30.00 wallet/handbag - - - - - - - the amount of money inside is the same;
Whether we drink a bottle of $300 or $10 wine - - - - - - - - - - - - the hangover is the same;
Whether the house we live in is 300 or 3000 sq. ft. - - - - - - - - loneliness is the same.
You will realize, your true inner happiness does not come from the material things of this world.
Whether you fly first or economy class, if the plane goes down - - - - - - --you go down with it...
Therefore..I hope you realize, when you have mates, buddies and old friends, brothers and sisters, who you chat with, laugh with, talk with,
have sing songs with, talk about north-south-east-west or heaven & earth,.... That is true happiness!!
Five Undeniable Facts of Life :
1. Don't educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be Happy. So when they grow up they will know the value of things not the price.
2. Best awarded words in London ... "Eat your food as your medicines. Otherwise you have to eat medicines as your food."
3. The One who loves you will never leave you for another because even if there are 100 reasons to give up he or she will find one reason to hold on.
4. There is a big difference between a human being and being human. Only a few really understand it.
5. You are loved when you are born. You will be loved when you die. In between, You have to manage!
NOTE: If you just want to Walk Fast, Walk Alone! But if you want to Walk Far, Walk Together!

Most people at the end of life echo these same sentiments.
ReplyDeleteMakes one rethink whats important and the meaning of "success"!
Steve's poignant last words expose the hollowness of pursueing wealth for its own sake.
Winning the money game does not bring happiness!
ReplyDeletethis undermines the prevailing paradigm that the aquisition of wealth is the goal of life and the path to happiness , and exposes it as a myth and a lie!
Life is not just about making money and spending money.
Money has limited value; time has infinite value.
Relationships matter,social issues matter,morality matters-- more than making and spending money!
Everything that matters depends on our caring relationships with each other
Earth's ecosystems are the unforseen beneficiaries of the Corvid-19 outbreak.
ReplyDeleteEfforts to stop tbe spread of Corvid-19 and deal with this global health crisis are dramatically changing human behaviour in ways that unexpectedly benefit the planet's health.
In response to public health official's prescriptions to minimize direct personal contacts and physical social interactions(social distancing/self-isolation ),people are adjusting their lifestyles and work habits in ways thst also reduce greenhouse gas emissions and their carbon footprint.
Flight restrictions have drastically reduced air travel.
Factory closures have reduced atmospheric pollution.
People have stopped buying/spending/consuming nonessential goods--sending the economy into a tailspin.
People are re-assessing their values/priorities and the importance of material/economic pursuits.
The preservation of human health and wellbeing takes precedence over the pursuit of wealth/profit.
