Here is a link to the commencement address by Steve Jobs at Stanford. The speech is organized into 3 stories. I liked the 3rd story the best. It's about death but don't worry it's quite upbeat !!

Boy he takes you so close to the inevitable ... To us it should be the driver that pushes us to the max... But it does not at all... We should have been trained under someone like Krishna who trained Arjuna's mind ... a mind training that finally drives out all fears... College education does otherwise ...The training there pushes your mind into a zone that sets limits because of unknown fears ... The mind is all set to follow procedures and the precedents... A risk averse mind ... There is something more valuable that he says which is about following someone else's thinking ... Giants like IBM ,Micro are all affecting our thinking ... Any place for our original thinking ?... Also reminds me of the poem of Tagore ... A mind without fear etc etc ...Overall it makes me wonder where would my mind be without college education...
