Earlier today Apple’s classic Think Different commercial popped up in my feeds, but this was the version Steve Jobs narrated. It gave me chills and nearly brought me to tears. It made me emotional not just because it’s one of the greatest commercials ever, but because it immediately took me back. Back to The Before Times. And I miss Steve or maybe it’s what he stood for as much as what he stood against. What a time to have been alive.

Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do. — Steve Jobs, 1997
