B double-E double-R U N

Some songs remind me of summertime.
Some videos make me smile.

Inspired

I've poured through this several times over the last few weeks. It's an absolute gem.

Steve Job's 2005 Commencement Speech at Stanford University


This particular quote really speaks to me:

"You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."

Looking at my own life, I am able to see so perfectly what he is saying. Too often I'd been trying to "set up" a situation, so to speak, and rarely if ever does that work. Instead, now I just try to really live. To not turn down that last conversation of the night, to check out a random event just for the hell of it, to really push my comfort zone and most of all just remember that I only live once.
