Randy Pausch

As many of you know, Randy Pausch died this week.



The way he handled his final few months brings me to tears. Joyful and sorrowful tears simultaneously. Joyful because he was a guy that rose to prominence for doing something good. Sorrowful because this guy is terrific and we need more guys like that, and sorrowful because I don't feel like I'm taking my "final days" by the horns like he did. Sure, I have far more final days, but they are final.



I, and everyone out there, has very few days. I, for one, have squandered at least two-thirds of mine. Please, forgive me Lord Jesus. I pray that I won't squander such a large percentage going forward.



God Bless and follow Randy's example. Sieze the day.
