Heryshaf the Sheep

'Life is short, my darling children. You may not realise this, overlooking my words as empty vessels floating across this page. I am however trying to talk to you here, now, with all of my being. You can save yourself so much time by trying to listen. If you can accept one little piece of advice, one gift which you can really internalise, it should be this: This moment you call life is short. It is a vast playground full of wonders and I encourage you to savour every moment of it. Moments will pass into memory, and memories too will pass in time. All that is real is this moment of connection. Here and now, whilst you stare and breathe, and feel - Your mother and I did not raise Sheep. And you are not to be sheep. You are each to be a human 'being'. - Be relentless T. Be courageous A. Be righteous H. Because we are all a long time dead.'
