Randy Pausch died almost a year ago.  At 47, the Carnegie Mellon professor lost his battle with pancreatic cancer. Mr. Pausch gave the talk above for his three young children when he found out his cancer was terminal.

At a time when many are struggling economically — and at any other time — it’s important to reflect on the things that really matter.

If you have not seen it yet, please spend time and watch, “The Last Lecture,” by Randy Pausch.

And thank Randy again.
