post # 124 – The Holstee Manifesto

This is your life. Do what you want and do it often.
If you don’t like something, change it.
If you don’t like your job, quit.
If you don’t have enough time, stop watching TV.
If you are looking for the love of your life, stop; they will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love.
Stop over-analysing, life is simple.
All emotions are beautiful.
When you eat, appreciate every last bite.
Life is simple.
Open your heart, mind and arms to new things and people, we are united in our differences.
Ask the next person you see what their passion is and share your inspiring dream with them.
Travel often; getting lost will help you find yourself.
Some opportunities only come once, seize them.
Life is about the people you meet and the things you create with them, so go out and start creating.
Life is short, live your dream and wear your passion.

post # 122 – Stories

“Stories? We all spend our lives telling them, about this, about that, about people … But some? Some stories are so good we wish they’d never end. They’re so gripping that we’ll go without sleep just to see a little bit more. Some stories bring us laughter and sometimes they bring us tears … but isn’t that what a great story does? Makes you feel? Stories that are so powerful … they really are with us forever.”

Post # 119 – Sheepdogs

“There are three types of people in this world: sheep, wolves, and sheepdogs.

Some people prefer to believe that evil doesn’t exist in the world,

and if it ever darkened their doorstep, they wouldn’t know how to protect themselves.

Those are the sheep.

Then you’ve got predators, who use violence to prey on the weak.

They’re the wolves.

And then there are those blessed with the gift of aggression, an overpowering need to protect the flock.

These men are the rare breed who live to confront the wolf.

They are the sheepdog.”
