The Blink of the Eye of Life

The blink of the eye of life shutters faster than you think.

That idea you have. Use it or lose it.

If you’ve thought it, someone else has.

Nothing is original, steal with pride and be the best thief you can be.

I’m buzzing. I’m laughing. I’m connecting. I’m launching.

I’m loving. I’m walking. I’m listening. I’m selling.

How about you?

The blink of the eye of life shutters faster than you think.

Reflect all you want, you’re a long time dead.

    1. Funnily enough I’ve written two previous blog posts with the title Steal With Pride so when you Google it, up I pop 🙂 I’m sure I didn’t coin the phrase but it doesn’t seem to be attributed to anyone else so maybe….?
