If you know you only have tow more years to live, what the color of your life will or should be?
Randy Pausch, a CMU professor who fought against his pancreatic cancer for two years, died on July 25th 2008.  Last September  I  happened to watched his Last Lecture speech online. It's absolutely touching and inspiring. Almost one year apart, this lecture has changed  millions of lives. During his last days, he lived in the very essence of life:  peeling off all the "things", the money and the fame, and letting only love and passion shine.
