heartstrings

I first saw Randy Pausch a while back when Diane Sawyer interviewed him and his wife. He got every one's attention when he created a special "last lecture" for his students at the university where he was a professor in computer science. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer with only a few months to live. So he decided to leave a legacy for his three young children and wife. He encouraged us to live each day as if it were our last. If you haven't seen "the last lecture", take a few minutes and watch it. It'll give you something to think about.

Randy passed away on Friday. He wanted to make it to Father's Day. He did.

There are just certain people that cross your path in life that touch you. Maybe someone you meet at the grocery, or see in a movie, or hear on the radio. For me, Randy Pausch was one of those people. He touched my heart.
