A New Wednesday

I have been pretty off beat these few days, though not down. just off a little.
but yesterday something changes my life. watching a rerun of Oprah, she gave a show on the topic of death, but the perspective is totally New. not the gloomy and sad approaches of death. instead, the truth about death is that we all will face. So this is how we face it. once in a while we all ask a silly question about if you know that you'd die tomorrow or the date you'll die what would you do? and the answer is whatever i like and feel i want to. So Oprah does one that ask the person who is really in the situation and it's a inspirational and spiritual show.

first there's this lady who say she got the wake up call and stop all tobacco and drinking and start eathing greens and drinking greens. and she gone from a normal, wild life to a healthy, wild, fulfilling life, and started training as an acrobat as well haha. That's how you can choose to end or live a real life instead of being gloomy even when you have nothing but boredom. So go do something. Boredom is not exactly a dying desease. so this really put me into a perspective to my own life.

the next one would be an internet phenomanon, Randy Pausch the computer science freak professor of Carnergie Mullen University, have his real "Hypotheticly Last Lecture when you kow you are going to die" on his last lecture. everyone shown up in the lecture hall. he is diagnos with pankreatic cancer and given 6 months. And what he did is uplifting and the lecture I'd say everyone whould take. you can watch it on youtube.

every Lecture, Professor, Educator should be like this or if you think you can inspire yourself to be one. you can if you just put your mind to it. so this is what i meant to live life at the present. not about yesterday and tomorrow. now today.

this is the link if you wish to watch it on youtube. it's a bit over an hour and the most mesmerizing and inspring lecture I've ever been to. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo&session=tj1_ZujBosz_JPzspHXrsOBSZ2z45olemFGYMtNNdkA5UJHEolpJ6_Bq-kELe5jqGPbBUbJlUxNqTZ1sPuoU3kIV_Li0TFoOW8omXaaSVF8WvM1ujAdKgSmcss2p_Ut4eji_3vXQFvaFE5Kz5icDW3M5JoLctYo4OhT3jHOvStaSU0UOaZnKa6PBzZMo7QZ-sSpCjWLdYHsOH2iC2shz0dP3ZCLzXX3RXMdDm3EEhCC9keIlmSwvwCKAUko2_j_a
