"ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG..."

There is such truth to that statement.."Only the good die young." It's amazing to think of all the incredible people who make a mark on this world, and die before they can truly realize the impact they have had on people; and our society. I am hoping that steven Jobs really knew the "ding" he made in the world, I am thinking that he did.

When you are a true visionary in your field, you can see the potential and reason of things before anyone else can. You can talk about things you want to happen, and it only takes one person to believe you can make those things happen. I am always curious to see what people will say about me when it's my time. I mean in time of death even people we may have not thought were great get a pass. What I am hoping is that I perfect my skills in my industry, but leave a bigger legacy helping people in some way. I guess that might be the book I wrote and the ones I want to potentially write, after this one. I can't cure cancer by putting pretty things on pretty people, but I can make things more understandable for the average person when it comes to my real life.

I remember a teacher in HS saying to me, you can't always write like you talk...it won't make sense in an essay. He was right, very right...but the funny thing is, I did not want to write a typical essay I wanted to write like I speak. I am thankful that the world is a different place today and that I can do that, write like I talk. I can write openly, honestly and with much integrity.

Forget your carbon footprint, make sure you do what you love in life because you cannot live forever.

Much love!
