Inspiration is so awe-inspiring

I’ve just came across this amazing story of Professor Randy Pausch, a college professor at Carnegie Mellon.
What’s so amazing? This man has terminal cancer, and yet he’s still adamantly so happy as he gave his last lecture. I’ve sat through 1 hour and 40 minutes of his lecture at the comfort of my own home, half a globe away. This man is such an inspiration. Faced with such devastating odds, he could still talk about his dreams, his passion for fulfilling other people’s dreams and his tenor without a slightest look of depression.
He talked about his life, his background and shared with us many important lessons that we all should take back. I seriously encourage you all to watch his 1 hour and 40 minutes lecture.
Watching him speak, just makes me rethink my perspective of life. Yes, it sounds like a cliche, but its really helpful to get a wakeup call every now and then.
