A few months ago Susan told me about the last lecture of Dr. Randy Pausch. It's a very inspirational lecture, one hour long. Since then I have been talking to people around me and suggesting them to see the video. Later on I found a short version which is 10 minutes long, presented at Oprah show.
One day when I was at the SoL global forum in Muscat, the discussions lead to how to inspire people to take their dreams more seriously. A lady at our table started talking about this video and how inspirational it is. And I agree. Specially at the times when you feel disappointed or lost, just watch this 10 minutes video and it will put you back on the track.
Here is the short version at Oprah:

Often, I question the reasons beyond our existence. Sometimes in my prayers I ask my God to give me an answer( I cannot bear having this question mark forever). There should be an answer for it even if I have to wait till afterlife. I also think there should be a remedy, something promising for me to carry on until I meet him I do not wish to tell him “ Oh, I am sorry you are little too late and now you have no choice to send me back so that I can do what I was supposed to do!!!!
Today listening for the second time to Randy Pausch through Kamyar, while I had the sound of my kids in the background, splashing water in the bath tub, screaming their heads off, full of joy and happiness, I found my short remedy, the key to continue till everything is revealed to me is to LOVE and be LOVED, is to have FUN (as Randy says) and find happiness in every moments that I have with my family, and NOT to WORRY about the future. Thank you Kamyar

Thanks for sharing it.
Yesterday I was reading about some qualities we have in our childhood, which we loose them step by step through out our lives. One of them reminded me of your cute little twins :) Sharing the joy with others without any expectations. If you don't mind I will have a post about that experience :)

I finally saw it. When he was talking about "THINGS" it reminded me so much about you.
