A Mid Life Celebration supporter sent this inspiring You Tube clip. It could not have come at a better time.

And one more thing Son, it came to me, because of a thing called the law of attraction. It’s similar to another cliche you and I have talked about extensively, “Birds of a feather flock together”.

Dear Son, we’ll watch this tonight when I get home from Scott’s service.

Don’t be trapped by dogma

man and son

.

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. 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. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

Steve Jobs
