Steve Jobs' speech

Steve Jobs gave a speech at graduate ceremony about his life stories, dropping out from college, love and death. His parents saved money for his college tuition because they promised with his biological mother who wanted to that he goes to college. However, he dropped out normal courses and dropped in what he is really interest in; As a result, he could make Mac computer with beautiful design. He, also, got fired from a company that he made but he still loved what he did, so he started from tha bigining. He believe that's why he could meet his wife and make nice family. In addition, he experienced nearly death and he realized that helped him think what he truly wants to be. He covinced we have to keep looking what we really love and don't settle down. "Stay hungry, Stay foolish."
This speech was very impressive. Usually, I could litsen some speech that are about just general things, no emotion and that was not moving at all. On the other hand, I could exectly feel what he wanted to say from what he went through. His speech encoraged me very much because I was worried about my future. Even though I came to Canada to do what I want to achieve, I had some regret because I thought I'm late to do something new and I doubted I'm wasting my time here or not. However, I realized I should keep going, even though I'm sure it will be very tough.
