Oh Wow! Oh Wow! Oh Wow!
Those, according to Steve Jobs's sister, were his dying words.
And he said them as he stared beyond those gathered around his deathbed.
What was Jobs seeing?
My guess is that what this unmatched curator of great design saw was design perfection, some sort of design heaven.
It is my theory that if one has lived life passionately, on death one passes to that passion.
For those of us, and that would probably be the vast majority, death only leads to one more go at life, one more opportunity to find passion.
An interesting variation of this theme is the concept of the Half-Way House - a concept that I came across a Japanese book or movie, the details of which I do not remember.
The Half-Way House concept is that when we die we all go to a Half-Way House. At the Half-Way House we are asked to recall that moment in our life when we were the happiest. And as soon as an individual in a Half-Way House recalls that moment correctly, he/ she is transported away from the Half-Way House to Heaven.
Passionate Involvement = Intense Happiness = Heaven?
Oh Wow! Of Wow! Of Wow!
Go figure "Hey Ram".
