About
This is a simple blog from Felix Faassen aka “flixz” or “flixzie” filled with stories which inspire me, things I see, hear, feel, taste and smell.
One poem
There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne’er express, yet cannot conceal.
– Lord Byron
Two motto’s
“Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.”
– Mahatma Gandhi
“You must be the change you want to see in the world.”
– Mahatma Gandhi
