Steve Jobs passed away today. This is sad news to me, indeed.
I’ve been using Apple computers since they came out in the ’80’s. I first owned a little box of magic from Apple, like the one in the picture, and it was life-changing! I remember what a revolution they were! As a writer laying out my own text, there were things I could do with an Apple Macintosh computer that I could do with no other computer at the time.
Steve Jobs and Apple Computers really lead the way for many of the tools we use now, everyday. So many things bear Steve’s legacy, but let’s not forget his powerful words as well:
“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. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.†– Steve Jobs
