The last words of Steve Jobs, billionaire, who died at 56:
"I have reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In the eyes of others, my life is a success.
However, apart from work, I have had little joy.
In the end, wealth is just a fact that I have gotten used to.
Right now, lying in my hospital bed, and recalling all my life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth in which I have taken pride has paled in comparison to death.
You can hire someone to drive your car or earn money for you, but it is impossible to hire someone to bear the illness and die for you.
Material things can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost: Life.
No matter what stage of life we are at, with time, we will be faced with the day when the curtain closes.
Love your family, your spouse, your children and your friends... Treat them well.
Cherish them.
As we age, and become wiser, we slowly realize that carrying a $300 watch or a $30 watch, the amount inside is the same.
Whether we drive a $150,000 car or a $30,000 car, the road and the distance are the same, and we arrive at the same destination.
Whether we drink a bottle of wine for $1000 or for $10, the hangover is the same.
Whether the house in which we live measures 100 or 1000 square meters, loneliness is the same.
You will realize that your true inner happiness does not come from the material things of this world.
Whether you travel first class or economy class, if the plane breaks down, you break down with it...
Therefore, I hope you realize, when you have friends, brothers and sisters, with whom you talk, laugh, talk, sing, talk about the north-south-east or the sky and the earth,... it is true happiness !!
An undeniable fact of life:
Do not educate your children to be rich.
Educate them to be happy.
When they grow up, they will know the value of things and not the price."
Life is beautiful
