IFP Emeritus President Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi, has died at the age of 95. He was a former Apartheid collaborator who redeemed himself as a respected elderly statesman. As a reporter I interviewed Buthelezi many times & had mixed feelings about him. I still do. Fairwell Sir.
This is Shrek. He was just your everyday, average, run-of-the-mill Merino sheep living in South Island, New Zealand when he decided to escape from his enclosure and make a break for it to some nearby caves. He managed to live on his own for 6 years before he was eventually tracked down by his owner John Perrian, who had this to say when he finally found him: "He looked like some biblical creature."
While some sheep breeds naturally shed their wool, like Bighorn sheep in North America, Merino sheep never do. Their wool will continue to grow until it completely engulfs them and even impairs their vision (what you would call "wool blind"). Domesticated sheep have evolved based on the way humans have groomed them for thousands of years. The earliest domestication of sheep dates back to 11,000 BCE in ancient Mesopotamia, where they were primarily used for meat, milk, and wool.
After 6 years without a shave, Shrek had enough wool on his body to produce 20 suits for large men. In total, his fleece weighed 60 pounds. Shrek's fleece was shaved off on national television and then auctioned off to support medical charities for children. He even got to meet the Prime Minister and has since been depicted in several children's books. Sadly, Shrek passed away in 2011 at the age of 16.
I cheer for people.
I will clap my hands for you until they are red and sore, and I can't no more. And then I will keep going because you inspire me!
You see, I was raised to believe there’s enough sun for everybody. And if you think about it, there truly is! We are all going through the most but seeing you doing things, going places and making it... makes me so flipping happy.
Call me crazy, but I love to see people happy and succeeding. It inspires me to want to do better.
Life is a journey, not a competition.
That’s it. Just wishing good things for everyone. And maybe a really lekker day today too.
Okay. Love you. Bye.
