Post # 198 The Best Is Yet To Be

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/30/opinion/mona-simpsons-eulogy-for-steve-jobs.html?pagewanted=all

Steve Jobs' sister delivered the euology for her brother.  You can click on the link above to read it if you like.  I'm happy her brother found her.  She was 25 when she got a call that she had a brother and he wanted to meet her. During the eulogy one of the things she said was "Steve’s final words, hours earlier, were monosyllables, repeated three times. Before embarking, he’d looked at his sister Patty, then for a long time at his children, then at his life’s partner, Laurene, and then over their shoulders past them.  Steve’s final words were:
OH WOW. OH WOW. OH WOW. "

I think those words must have been so comforting for them. To me it is close to saying 'no one dies, life goes on, the best is yet to be', don't you think?
