Here’s some word art from a Steve Jobs quote at the 2005 Stanford University commencement: “There is no reason not to follow your heart.” Here’s the longer version:
“Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.”

I love this quote, it really makes you see things from a different perspective. Makes me question myself as I wonder why I even fear? Really don’t want time to run out while I wait for fear to leave.. hmm.. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much for your comment, Misty! I think most of us need to work on not letting our fear stop us.
