A great man’s ‘great’ with his contribution and ability to change the world.

How much impact to the world from Steve Jobs’s death?
How much impact to Apple in the future from Steve Jobs’s death?
How much impact to Apple users around the world from Steve Jobs’s death?
It’s pretty sad that the news all over the world today is about the great man—Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, the father of all i-series products. 

For me, I don’t really know much on his story before until today he dead. I think many of us are more willing to read his story, his legend, to know more about him started from today.
Maybe his death would bring a great effect to the world, but I don’t think it will be long lasting, as he will be an history someday and many might forgot about him even today the news all around the world is about him.
But seriously what he had done, was really impressive and “He’s the man who changed the world.” His creativity, his innovative, his passion to what he loves, his wisely thought, and also ought to be an ”inspired mentor” to many of his friends and workers.

But guess what?I am not a iphone/ipad/iMac user which I am not affordable to have it. But I do have an ipod at least and iTunes is the best music player that I ever used. The day when I admired and agreed Jobs is really bright and inspired man is after I watched his speech on YouTube. That he shared 3 stories in his life to others, which everything he said, is all come from his life experiences, and had bring great impact to the people who had listened to it, and I was one of them.

His greatest quote:
“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." –Steve Jobs.

It maybe a thought that everyone could think of. It maybe a phrase that everyone can say it out through the life that they had experienced. But it’s because that came from a great man’s mouth, everything is different.

I will never forget his though on death, which I am totally agreed on.

He read a quote "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right."
And with the quote, he lives for his life over the passed 40 years everyday, passionately.

He said:
“No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.”

Cruel, realistic, but that’s what we all need to get through in life.

Maybe we cant really be a great man like him,
or as successful as him,
or even get through his level,
but with his spirit to taste the life differently,
like what he creates the slogan for Apple: Think differently
We are all a different APPLE in Steve Jobs’s eyes I think.
