 The Last Lecture
Did anyone watch "The Last Lecture: A Love Story For Your Life" on ABC this evening?  The show featured Randy Pausch, a professor who is dying of cancer.  His "final lecture" has been watched by millions on the Internet and is now available in book form.  [I must be living under a rock as I knew nothing about Professor Pausch or his lecture.]  The way this man is handling and living his last days on earth is nothing short of amazing.  I'm sitting here totally blown away and inspired beyond words.  I can't wait to read the book.  What were your thoughts and feelings after watching the show?

I've heard of him. He's done so much with the time he has left.

I did not see it.
You peaked my interest though.
If we could all live like we are dying.
Actually, we are all dying, so we should live amazing and inspiring lives, you think?
Peace.

I realized I had heard about him at work and looked him up before. He writes about his life if you are interested: http://download.srv.cs.cmu.edu/~pausch/news/index.html< br />

CD- I know I have found this post WAY down the track.......but I recently saw this man and his lecture on Oprah and I was truly blown away. My husband has battled cancer twice, and the day I saw this that night, I downloaded it for him to watch. My husband later put it into one of his work seminar presentations ....everybody should hear this man and never forget the precious value of life xo
