Steve Jobs - An Icon


October 5, 2011 - the whole world was taken aback with the demise of Steve Jobs. He was an inventor, a genius mind that shook the world with his creations. He had the vision to change the world, and he transformed Apple into one of the biggest names in the technology field.
He is an inspiration for many peope out there. He found what he loved and he certainly was the crazy one driving the technology to the next level. "Death is very likely the single best invention of life." he used to say.
To me, Jobs was one of the greatest idol of all times; "Think different", that word always encouraged me. I was shocked, saddened by the news of his demise on my twitter timeline. I started thinking what he had done to the Technological world. He was a true Geek; always stepping ahead and making everything beautiful. Life is unfair, people like him are meant to be there forever but at 56 Jobs passed away. He will be remembered all around the world, and many global figures has paid tribute to him. Like for most, he is an example of what you can do in short span of time of your life. He has been an inspiration since I got into the technological field. Its hard to believe how life turns around. The world has lost a great visionary but he will always be an example for every person to follow.
I am still shaking and staring at my screen, checking news and informations about him. I still cant believe what happened, and how it happened... I started the day thinking to celebrate the festival with other friends, but the news caught me and I couldn't, People might call it "posey" but I don't care I respect Jobs more than the gods, Maybe thats the way life goes on.
Geeks are meant to live forever and am sure he will be living in every heart of people that has even heard the word "technology".
RIP Steve Jobs
"Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the ones who think differently. While some may see crazy, we see genius." -Steve Jobs 1955-2011

  1. Nice article mate, great words to describe Jobs and to describe the same feelings I had, but I couldn't turn into words since I'm not very good turning feelings into words.

    This is a must-read article. I'll be sharing this everywhere I can. Congratulations
