Randy Pausch's last lecture
Father's final message to his children:
This is Randy Pausch. He's 47 years old. He's a Carnegie Mellon computer science professor. He's a father of three young children. He's dying from pancreatic cancer. You'd never know it to listen to him if he didn't tell you outright. Last fall, he gave a "final lecture", normally a hypothetical exercise where one pretends to have one last audience and give one's final thoughts before leaving this world. Except, as he says, I have this elephant here in the room with me.Watch his "final lecture" and take a moment to re-evaluate your life and what's important to you. I thank Dream Street Rose for bringing this video, and this amazing man, to my attention:

Good post and something we should all consider.
Ok, you made me cry, are you happy now?
That was an excellent video, thank you very much. Wise words, to be sure.
May we all have just HALF of his strength should we ever need it.
