365 Project Day 278: Rest in Peace, Steve Jobs

October 6, 2011

Thank You

Canon 5D Mark ll, 100 macro 2.8, 9.0 aperture, 1/200 shutter, 100 ISO. One Alien B800 camera left with 30 degree grid spot at 1/16 power and one to camera right with a 10 degree grid spot at 1/32 power.

You will be missed. Thank you for making your mark on our world, for shining your brilliance so that we could all be better, brighter in your light.

We wish we could have kept you with us longer. You were only 56.

“Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.”

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.” ~ Steve Jobs
