Looking back from the future

I looked at myself this morning in the mirror.
I see a man with reasonably good health, strong… a man with all black hair (with the occasional-but-still-pluckable-white hairs).
And then I started imagining how I would be like when I’m old, and withered,
I smiled briefly when I was pondering about the wrinkles, the white and bald(ing) hair…

Goodbye Steve

I feel like your death is the end of an era, the end of the Golden Age of Technology
Although I might not be a direct consumer of your products, I deeply respect you, and feel saddened by your passing.

I fear that we’re entering the Dark Age of Technology without you where lack of innovation, desire and passion is increasing.

Rest In Peace Steve Jobs, thank you for everything you’ve taught me,
these are the ones that touched me the most,

“if you haven’t found it yet, keep looking, and don’t settle, as with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it…”
“if today were the last day of my life, would I wanna do what I’m about to do today”
