Today I read "The Last Lecture" by Randy Pausche for the third time. This book is particularly meaningful to me since we lost a family member to pancreatic cancer. After taking time away from our jobs & lives to provide continuous care for our dying loved one, it proved to be one of the most valuable gifts life has ever offered us.
'The Last Lecture' will surely touch your heart.
I admire Randy Pausche for his strength & inspiration and for sharing the final stages of his life. He gave this powerful speech in May to the Graduating Class of 2008 at Carnegie Mellon. It is very inspirational and worth a listen.
