I can remember as a little boy going to the mall with my mom
and seeing this amazing new computer. It looked like an elongated square with a
square screen and an opening for a 3.5 inch diskette. I remember that it also
had a little box attached by a cable to the computer with a button on it. I
remember asking the sales person what it was and he said that it was a
mouse. This little “mouse” would end up
revolutionizing the computer world. The computer was one of the first Mac’s on
the market.
Fast forward to 2008 and Steve Jobs and his team of
imagineers at Apple introduce a new phone. This phone was more than just a
phone. It was a computer, Internet browser, personal assistant and everything else
all in one. It has also continued the revolution of innovative products that
Apple, with Steve Jobs at the helm, has introduced to society. Apple and Mr.
Jobs have changed how the world looks at technology. This is an amazing
statement considering Mr. Jobs was a college dropout and his company, Apple,
was on the way to bankruptcy a few years before Mr. Jobs came back to run the
company. Mr. Jobs lead the company, thru the innovations mentioned above as
well as others, to its best year ever in 2011. They are the leading tech
company in the world and with Mr. Jobs passing that will hopefully not change.
Mr. Jobs innovative products and ability to think outside
the box have garnered him and his company much success in this world. The
products Apple has produced have had an amazing positive impact on society by
improving the lives of millions through technology. I know that I am more
productive with my iPhone because I don’t have to wait for anything. If I need
to check on an email that I am waiting on I can do it from my iPhone. If I need
to check weather radar… there is an App for that! If my wife and I need to make
a reservation for dinner… well there is also an App for that too. I can get my
news, sports and of course my weather all from my iPhone! How cool is that!
Mr. Jobs, I pray that you rest in peace and that you find
the comfort in the open arms of God. To your family, I pray that they feel God’s
comfort wrap around them and that they celebrate the life and power of the
changes that Mr. Jobs made in the world.
Peace be with you Sir.
From a proud Apple Lover!
Bryan
