Apple’s Belated CEO, Steve Jobs’ Last Words…..

“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. In the darkness, I look at the green lights from the life supporting machines and hear the humming mechanical sounds; I can feel the breath of god of death drawing closer…

“Now I know, when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime, we should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth…

 

It should be something that is more important: Perhaps relationships, perhaps art, perhaps a dream from younger days.

Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth.

 

The wealth I have won in my life I cannot bring with me. What I can bring is only the memories precipitated by love. That’s the true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. Love can travel a thousand miles. Life has no limit. Go where you want to go. Reach the height you want to reach. It is all in your heart and in your hands.

“What is the most expensive bed in the world? Sick bed…

 

“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, for your spouse and love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.

A man went to a saint and asked, “What’s the value of life?” The saint gave him a stone and said, “Find out the value of this stone, but don’t sell it.”   The man took the stone to an orange seller and asked him what its cost would be. The orange seller saw the shiny stone and […]

On Relative Happiness

All of us are searching for happiness, but the idea of what makes us happy differs from person to person. A lifetime of misery can come from chasing the wrong kind of happiness. We often chase things that we think will make us happy, but in turn we make everyone — including (eventually) ourselves — miserable.   A person, when he is […]

    Really sorry for late comment …..but really very truly said by Steve Job about the truth of life, which we understand but are not ready to accept. But the person will come to a conclusion only on sick bed…which only the person has to face and for that he can’t hire any person at any cost.
