The "i" who was the Apple of the world


Whenever I heard Steven Jobs's name, I remembered my 9th grade in school. We had a lesson on Steve Jobs and I still remember his story of what he has brought into this world by revolutionalising the digital world. Though I have not seen him in person anytime, Hearing the morning news about his dissolution from his life left me totally saddened the whole day.


           I kept on wondering what is it that affected me so much. Why the sinking feeling as if I have lost something. He has never considered Indian markets very keenly; nor has he done something out of his business. His was purely a corporate Identity, an iCON . And when I thought about this the whole day, I had got my answer only during the evening prayers to God.

"Each person comes on this earth for certain reasons. Some do Good things and few opt for the bad. However that person may be, Eventually its the Soul which is immortal, eternal. So I believe, the vacuum that a great soul leaves behind is the hollow left forever..."

R.I.P Mr. Jobs !
