The Passing Of Apple's Great... Mr. Steve Jobs

When I learned of Mr. Job's passing yesterday, I was in utter shock, seeming so sudden, yet, knowing it was a long time coming. My heart goes out to his family and the world... the void felt by the loss of such a positive, innovative and brilliant man is astronomical. It was back in January of this year that I had wrote a recognition blog for this amazing individual. I pray God has someone in mind who will carry the torch further and allow it to burn brighter in the next coming centuries, however, I don't feel this is quite possible. God bless you and your family Mr. Steve Jobs.

“Life which has been given, can be wonderful and kind… it is death itself which is a cruel & unjust thief. The void felt by the loss of such a positive, innovative and brilliant man is astronomical, the world and I shall never forget Mr. Steve Jobs”- Richard Peacock 10/6/2011

Apple's - "Steve Jobs, he who walks among the masters of modern progression"

It's strange and ironic how many intelligent, talented & artistic individuals are a indirect part of our everyday lives, filling the landscape, and we truly don't give a second thought to them. There was Albert Einstein who literally brought vibrant energy to our previously dim lives along with some experimental help from Benjamin Franklin, who channeled the energy in lighting! Henry Ford, who personally made our lives so extremely easy in comparison to previous times and shaved days, weeks if not months off our travel time, and mobilized every one of us! Thomas Edison, who discovered ways to channel light & music and enable us to store and channel it for later use! And then there are the modern day geniuses... Sam Walton, one of the greatest marketing & retailers of our time! And Steve Jobs, this man is like the brainchild of all the above mentioned! This man had ideas, much like Bill Gates, the great software inventor/developer. These concepts for products and services changed all our lives! And he knew exactly what he wanted and how to go about bringing "IT" into our daily lives through his brilliant analyzation, development, production, manufacturing and finally marketing! Seeing the media is focusing on Steve Jobs in the event of his recent leave of absence at Apple, started me thinking of so many great inventor & entrepreneurial men of our time and prior to our time! We need to stop and pay attention from time to time to the greats whom still walk among us! Because they truly have enriched our lives with their visions! That applies to all the great unknown, extremely talented artists of our time as well! Everyone should take time in their lives daily to analyze and admire another's work or simply take a moment to look someone in the eye and connect with them on a greater level through communication, ESPECIALLY your own FAMILY MEMBERS! And show them you truly value them, because of who and what they are or have become! Because life slips by very quickly and if you don't stop in the special moments, with the special people in them and look around, absorbing the good and genuinely remarkable, you WILL miss out on something or someone life changing!
