Hey,
I know that I was to post on economic crisis ,but recently I met a man after which I feel compelled to write about him, so bear with me while I tell you about him .
As a kid or while growing up everyone has a childhood hero or some inspiration, so that whenever you think of him, you pray earnestly to God that as an adult you also have some qualities or success of him, but I dont remember having any such child hero, But recently I came in acquaintance with a man , and now I certainly have an inspiration and I also pray earnestly to GOD that when I die I have some qualities of him.
The man I am talking about is Randy Pausch.Now those of you who know about him must be puzzled that how could I meet him when he is not in this world anymore. I actually did not meet him in person but saw his video, and I feel so strongly connected to him, few persons have left such indelible print on my mind as him , so I feel meet would be a better word.
And for those you who dont know about Randy Pausch ; Randy Pausch was a professor of Computer Science at CMU , and he died of pancreatic cancer on July 2008. He gave a lecture at CMU to 400 students which is the best lecture I have ever heard. That lecture was a part of lecture series which used to be called "The Last Lecture"."If you had one last lecture before you died , what would it be ?" In that lecture he showed how to stare right into the eyes of The Grim Reaper and make fun of him. He taught no matter where, what and who you are , you can bring changes to somebody's life, how to live life .And the best part was that he did not tell these thing in age old boring manner but as he termed it he head faked it !!
I can write on and on about him but to fully appreciate it you must first watch the video .

Bye!!
