About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be a warrior of light

ABOUT ME

"Do little things with great love" --Mother Teresa

PHILOSOPHY

A Sojourner philosophy, a life in transit and in seasons. Life is in cycles, time is vertical.

I believe in a God that loves and exists in us all

I love to talk about this...you know, the meaning of life. I hope my visitors/hosts love to dialogue.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most at peace I have ever felt in my life I think is the time I was flying while bungee jumping off the highest bridge bungee in the world in SA

Teach, Learn, Share

This is great! I'm all for popular education vs. banking education. There is a quote from Bill Nye the Science Guy "Everyone you will ever meet knows something you don't"

I hope to teach others through listening. The world doesn't have enough people willing to listen.
