Whether it's a new relationship, the perfect job or a new car, it can seem like we're always waiting for something to make us happy in life instead of enjoying the present. Randy Pausch, a Carnegie Mellon University professor who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, reminds us of something many of us have forgotten—that life is truly a blessing. Rabbi Shmuley talks about Randy's book The Last Lecture and about how Randy inspires others to appreciate their lives and live them to the fullest.

Today's Shmuleyism
"Rather than wish for a rich life, yearn for a famous life or pray for a successful life, we have to come to understand that life itself is the greatest blessing of all."
