All Saint’s Day: Clear out the old to make way for the new.


 
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. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Steve Jobs, on June 12, 2005, at his commencement speech at Stanford University.

What difference will you make…

If words could change our world, we would have been saved on October 15, 1940.*

Good things may take time, and big changes may even cross the Millenium.

Yet don’t we all think, 70 years are enough time to THINK TWICE and start acting … ?!

What difference will *you* make on October 15, 2011 ?
