Smashed in figures

2008.

Two offices.

Two, even four, kisses on the cheeks.

A lot of yearly good wishes.

One toast.

One glass filled with champagne.

One empty stomach.

One dizzy head.

Two weak knees.

One sofa chair.

One glass of water.

One visit to the loo.

A load of hors d’oeuvres

Endless sweets.

One full stomach.

Two feet on the ground.

One lesson learned.

Lion Chaser Manifesto

Quit living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death. Set God-sized goals. Pursue God-ordained passions. Go after a dream that is destined to fail without divine intervention. Keep asking questions. Keep making mistakes. Keep seeking God. Stop pointing out problems and become part of the solution. Stop repeating the past and start creating the future. Stop playing it safe and start taking risks. Expand your horizons. Accumulate experiences. Enjoy the journey. Find every excuse you can to celebrate everything you can. Live like today is the first day and last day of your life. Don't let what's wrong with you keep you from worshiping what's right with God. Burn sinful bridges. Blaze new trails. Criticize by creating. Worry less about what people think and more about what God thinks. Don't try to be who you're not. Be yourself. Laugh at yourself. Quit holding out. Quit holding back. Quit running away.

Chase the lion.
