Unfortunately, I haven’t used a Macintosh yet, but there are some huge fans of Apple around me. They are always enthusiastically recommending Apple products saying how nice and unique their functions are and how beautiful the designs are. However, they never told me about Steve Jobs himself, so I hadn’t known much about him until after he passed away. The night he passed away, I watched the famous speech he made at the Stanford University commencement ceremony in 2005. I also came across one with Japanese subtitles, so let me share that with anyone who needs or would like it.

He was talking about three interesting things in clear English introducing his own experiences: “Connecting the Dots” “Love and Loss” and “Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish.” I especially liked the first topic, “Connecting the Dots.” That way of thinking relieves me and makes me want to go ahead and achieve my vision even though I feel what I’m doing every day is very small. One day, all the effort will pay off.

Thank you, Steve Jobs. May you rest in peace.

p.s. I’d really like to buy a Mac before long.
