[Teachldsseminary] TEACH: death, a rare and valiant perspective

[Marji]

This is a link for an online video that I used this morning in
seminary in conjunction with 1 Kings 2 and the death of King David.
If you have internet, this is a powerful and moving story of the Last
Lecture of a man who knows he is dying, and the great courage he
displays in the face of death.  6 min. long.

This was absolutely beyond touching. I don't think I've ever cried
such happy tears. I have no other way to look at my life now other
than in the way you just explained. You are an amazing person; and I'm
not sure where you stand right now with your cancer, but where ever it
is, know you are a very inspirational person.

I have never seen or heard anything more profound than this. An
absolutely amazing person. God Bless.

Randy Pausch is an inspiration to "youngsters" like myself. I am 77
years old and have been diagnosed with emphysema. The end is much
nearer than I would wish it to be, but I am happy that I, too, have
had good parents just as Randy had. A great family and a wonderful
wife is also a blessing. In viewing Living Your Dream I am reminded of
something my grandfather is credited with saying: "Train your eye to
see, your mind to analyze and your heart to understand." -- Randy
Pausch, I understand your message and pray that Heavenly Father will
welcome you as one of his favorite sons!

It is unfortunate that so many only learn this lesson after a tragedy
has come... I learned it a couple of years ago when my husband passed
and my children have benefited from it so much. We have a saying in my
house,,, take each day as it comes and make it great! We do a lot of
playing and encouraging each other to do what they love in knowing the
rest will come. I'm known as the fun one. people that have met me
after my husband passed say quite often how they really have never
seen me mad or get upset about things. I am sending this to all my
friends, especially those who have children. What an inspiration and
wonderful thing to have your children strive for. You and your family
will be in our prayers.   With great respect in having lived without
regret.

God bless you Randy and God bless your family. I can not put into
words how humble you have made me feel. Thank you and God bless again.
