Steve Jobs is the billionaire founder of Apple Company. In his last words, he said,
“I have reached the summit of success in the world of business. In the eyes of others, my life is a success. However, aside from work, I had little joy.
When Wealth Vanishes
In the end, wealth is just a fact I am used to. At this moment, lying on my hospital bed, remembering my whole life, I realize that all the gratitude and wealth in which I took so much pride, has vanished and became meaningless in the face of imminent death.
Who’s Impossible To Hire?!
You can hire someone to drive your car or make money for you but it’s impossible to hire someone to deal with sickness and die for you.
Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – “Life”.
Whatever stage of life we are currently in, with time, we will face it the day the curtain closes.
Love your family, spouse, and friends … Treat them right. Cherish them.
When All Things Become The Same
As we get older, and wiser, we slowly realize that wearing a $300 or $30 watch – both give the same hour … Whether we have a $300 or $30 wallet or purse – the amount inside is the same. Whether we drive a $150,000 car or a $30,000 car, the road and distance are the same, and we arrive at the same destination. Whether we drink a bottle of wine for $1000 or $10 hangover is the same; whether the house we live in is 300 or 3000 square feet – the loneliness is the same.
True Inner Happiness
You will realize that your true inner happiness does not come from material things of this world. Whether you travel first-class or economic class, if the plane crashes, you crash with it.
Therefore, I hope you realize that if you have friends, brothers, and sisters, with whom you argue, laugh, talk, sing, talk about anything, this is the real happiness!”
