A little bit of perspective...

...we can all use a dose of it every now and then. When the trivial things in life feel like they're too much, take a minute to really think about what's bothering you.

Dr. Randy Pausch has terminal pancreatic cancer, and has very little time left. He revisited his "last lecture" on Oprah - which details life, and how to "live". Please, take the time to watch this. Some points to ponder from it:
  • brick walls are there for a reason: they let us prove how badly we want things
  • have fun all the time
  • know the importance of people vs things
  • experience is what you get when you don't get what you wanted
  • work & play well with others
  • have patience
  • show gratitude
  • if you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself -the dreams will come to you
