Holly’s parents posted her letter on 4 January 2018, the day she passed, telling of a peaceful end to their daughters beautiful but short life.

Holly lays out an remarkable road map for happiness written from the mortal perspective very few of us will ever share so young.

Ironically and as Holly points out we will all experience the perspective of mortality but it may all be too late to appreciate by then.

Holly always imagined herself growing old, wrinkled and grey - most likely caused by the beautiful family (lot of kiddies) she planned on building with the love of her life. Image supplied.

Holly selflessly pens her old soul in the hope that it will help its readers (us) to not sweat the small stuff and calibrate our place in the ever changing and confusing landscape of life.

It certainly touched us here at Newsport.
