If This Is Your Last Speech, What Will It Be About?

As I was surfing the web the other day, I chanced upon a video of Randy Pausch’s inspiring yet bitter-sweet public lecture (on 18th Sept 2007). He’s a Carnegie Mellon computer professor (and founder of Virtual Reality) who was diagnosed with an incurable pancreatic cancer. This was probably his last public speech as the doctors have only given him a few months to live.
Yet, standing at the podium in McConomy Auditorium on the campus, Randy Pausch did not focus on impending death. Instead, he celebrated the chance he had been given to live the life he had always dreamed of.
