R.I.P. Steve Jobs

You might wonder why I would write a post about Steve Jobs, but it was a commencement speech he gave at Stanford University where he said the following which struck a chord:

"You can't connect the dots looking forward, you can only connect them looking backwards. So, you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something; your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever, because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well-worn path and that will make all the difference."

And that's exactly what I'm doing; I'm trusting that the dots will connect and this blog is following them looking backwards.
