Very occasional quote of the day: on life choices

"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make 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... There is no reason not to follow your heart."

- Steve Jobs
