Randy Pausch's Inspiring Speech

We don't beat the reaper by living longer, we beat the reaper by living well....and fully.

~Randy Pausch

 
 

 
 
 
Randy Pausch has always inspired me to live life with gratitude - the lessons he teaches have changed the way so many people look at the way they lead their own lives.
 
Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, he gave his LAST LECTURE at Carnegie Melon University, and the world was forever changed again - mine was too.
 
I imagine what it must have felt like to be sitting amongst the graduates or the parents - listening to a man who wouldn't be around much longer speak so freely about death and why we must act now - live now - move ourselves in any direction, but move.....
 
Randy Pausch died 68 days after this speech was given.
Thanks for the lessons.
