    If things seem to get on top of you.

    Got this link from the Tucker Gunleather Blog - a very stirring speech by a guy who has a very finite time left - he is a professor and a mere 46 years old.

    I found inspiration in his approach, thinking and outlook - something that it seems have affected many - for the good.

    The main info (and vids of the speech) can be found on http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/PersonOfWe...3633945&page=1 ....... if you need a refresher on life - go check it out.

    Randy Pausch, a 46-year-old computer-science professor at Carnegie Mellon University, has terminal cancer and expects to live for just a few more months.

    This week, he said goodbye to his students and the Pittsburgh college with one last lecture called "How to Live Your Childhood Dreams," on his life's journey and the lessons he's learned

    Most people with a much longer (expected) life time don't have the attitude this man has with just a couple of months left...impressive and something for all of us to grasp on to...

    Thanks for posting...
