Steve Jobs passed away today. He will always be remembered as a visionary, a modern day Thomas Edison who was never afraid to think, never afraid to do and never afraid to dream. We always read about legends and icons from the past, people we never got to see and never got to hear. We saw Steve Jobs. We heard Steve Jobs. We saw and heard him on the marvels that he created for us. He brought the future to present day and gave the world to us. He spent most of his life looking for ways to make our own lives easier, simpler, and maybe even better. He taught us to be creative, to go forward and most importantly, he taught us to think different.
This is from the old Apple ad and I don't think there's a more appropriate
way to describe him.
Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
Rest in peace, Steve Jobs. Thank you. Your genius will be missed.
