I am always inspired by a few people that have come against all odds and came out on top. To name a few: Anders Hoffman, Riaan Manser, Wim Hof and Bear Grylls. If you aren't quite sure who they are then imagine cycling across Africa, or doing the Ironman in Antarctica. And honestly, that sort … Continue reading The best way to buy a CD

Placing faith
There comes a time when your faith is tested. You trust for something and one day it comes true, or so you think, so you hope. As time goes by doubt seems to fade in. Then the choice becomes yours to believe whether it was ever true and if your hope was put in the … Continue reading Placing faith
Mano de Dios

So that leaves me with looking at the past and telling a story in which I was 'free'. If you have … Continue reading Mano de Dios
What remains is
The beauty in between Above is an image taken on my Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini in the year of 2017. We were on the summit of Mias Poort, overlooking the mountains in the distance. Did we have a permit you ask? Huh, what's that? Anyways, I mentioned that I was using this ancient 'smartphone' of … Continue reading What remains is

What I … Continue reading Recipe for success
Life without pain is painful
If you had to ask a world-renowned sports athlete how he became so prosperous he would say that he suffered. If you had to ask a famous writer how he has become so crafty with words and sold many books he would tell you he suffered. I heard this today in an interview with Jon … Continue reading Life without pain is painful
Down to the wire
I feel like I've been talking a lot about struggle lately. I'm going to talk about it again. Previously I have overcome it and this time is no different. Except that I am still in the middle of a big trial and tribulation. I know I can get through it too. This last week has … Continue reading Down to the wire
