早上打开Flipboard，第一页就有人说乔布斯登船，以为是个玩笑，再翻几页下去竟全是乔布斯去世的消息，又打开Hacker news，满屏都是乔布斯的消息，心道这次是真的，然后就想起来了他辞职信里的那句话：that day has come。

并不是因为我对苹果产品有特殊的感情，让我感到震惊和难过的是，从2009年一月起他体重巨减到现在这长达两年半的时间里，尽管一直处于死亡的威胁下，但他未停止推动苹果这艘大船的脚步，他实实在在得为事业奋战到灯枯油尽。一个已经获得人世所有荣耀的人，一个被绝症耗尽生命力的人，是什么在驱动着他？我想起了他在斯坦福演讲时说过的两段话：

…and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?” And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

八月底读了乔布斯的辞职信，我想，他终该获得了身体和精神上的宁静吧，我甚至没有怀疑过他会战胜绝症，作为一个传奇人物，传奇还会延续，下一个传奇是乔布斯再次站在苹果发布会上……可惜这并未发生。

谢谢乔布斯，比起你创造的精密绝伦的科技产品更重要的是你身体力行的告诉世人去追随梦想，不对糟透的现实妥协。也许无人能复制你的成功，但你留下的这笔精神财富却能激励更多人做更好的自己。

 Rest in peace, Steve Jobs.
