Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs passed away.

He is considered the greatest icon of the electronic world of the 21st century. He changed processes; he simplified them. He made life smoother and bumps lesser. His passing is a great loss to humanity.

He lived short. At least that was what my colleague told me. He created simplicity and sublime system and applications, leaving an imprint of elephantine proportion, his thumb print stamped on each legacy. But his life was too short. He could have done much, much more.

A famous line goes like this: 'It does not matter how long you lived. It is how you live your life.' The contributions he had done to make this world a little better is a thousand miles more significant than decades of barren existence. He lived for his passion. He materialized dreams, revolutionizing simultaneously the ways of the world. And that is what matters.

Immortality has various faces. The masterpieces of Beethoven and the sonnets of Shakespeare continue to echo in the wind till today. Steve Jobs' incandescence will illuminate groping hopefuls, flickering inspiration to elementary and advanced minds alike. And his story will be printed on history books.

Age is but a number.
