Steve Jobs' Last Words
email from Kamalini Kanapathippillai
"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 ... 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, love for
your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others."
