The Last Lecture

I just finished watching one of the most touching and inspirational videos I have ever seen. Randy Pausch, a man dying of Pancreatic Cancer, can teach you more about life and living well than any book. He’s a man with only a few more months to live, but his lecture is anything but morbid. I strongly urge you to set 11 minutes aside to watch this video. Don’t play it in the background while multi-tasking. Give it your full attention. He deserves that much.

    Ape,

    Thanks for posting this. It’s an amazing tale, and I hope people get as much out of this as you and I have.

    This guy, Randy Paush, is incredibly inspirational.
    The video from Oprah is really just a tiny, tiny percentage of the original speech/lecture
    If you have some time, I’d recommend you check it out

    Yeah, I thought about posting the longer one, but thought most folks wouldn’t have the Hour and a half needed to watch it. Thanks for adding the link in the comments. I’m going to have to set some time aside to watch it all.
