Putting a dent in the universe






During the days when my buddy, CK (Chuan Keat) just got hired by Apple as an engineer, he always repeat quotes after quotes from his boss Steve Jobs.
Really.....(talking bout 'almost religious like' admiration, LOL, this guy never use apple before he got hired!)







One of them is the one above :" Putting a dent in the universe." The full quote is as follow:

“We're here to put a dent in theuniverse, otherwise why else even be here?"

For those who don't know, I am currently on a long leave back in Malaysia, in the unfamiliar realm of Klang Valley (instead of my home town Penang) for family reason.

While hanging round, I got some spare time to think about what I am going to do next.

Steve's death remind me again of this quote.

I think the scariest thing is probably not death itself, but the thoughts you have on your death bed, that you know that you haven't really do what you wanted to do before you die, and you will never be able to do it. You are lucky if you believe in afterlife/second-life.

Oh yea, have been seeing a lot of the comics on line showing steve in a christian styled heaven. Just to be fair, I know he is a Zen Buddhist. So I drew him in a more Buddhist styled afterlife (actually just replacing the usual angels with a Buddha/monk).






Everyone can learn something different from Steve.
