Steve Jobs, 1955-2011
Coming home after creatives meetings to this news is not only surreal, but sobering. As I unpack my Macbook Pro and iPhone and sit down to crank up Logic Studio and add a few necessary updates to iCal—Wow—I realize that the impact Steve Jobs has had on me cannot be summed to only a few words. I feel as though I've lost someone who has looked out for me for the last twenty years. His work has played a large role in allowing me the freedom to pursue my dreams and realize personal and professional happiness in many ways.
One thing about great creators is that they never stop creating. There's no question that whatever he had up his sleeve next will be infinitely cooler given the resources he now has available. You can almost hear him—"I think it's going to be really incredible!"
I miss him already. Rest in Peace, Steve.
