CURRENT MISSION

keep my head above the fray

ABOUT ME

I always thought the title to this section was a little optimistic. I don't even know "all about me" yet. Here's "a little about me" instead. I love cleverness in many forms. Clever wording, clever people, clever ideas... etc. I am an entrepreneur at heart. I think I may be related to some ancient clan of explorers or nomads because that is what feels natural to me. I am a christian in that I believe that Jesus is the answer to many questions in life. I enjoy the uniqueness of people, life and the way people live it. Outside of the box is a good place to be. I am libertarian. I just had to look up how to spell libertarian.

PHILOSOPHY

“I would rather be ashes than dust!
I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot.
I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.
The function of man is to live, not to exist.
I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them.
I shall use my time.”
― Jack London

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

The North Country (Alaska, Yukon). To quote Jack London.."Raw and Raked, Wild and Free." In my mind that wild place has always been synonymous with beauty of a more primitive sort.

Many other places...

教，学，和分享

Passion is one of the most important aspects of a life, but I am beginning to see that it is mainly useless unless it can be directed to some particular end. Slowing down and enjoying people, though often confused with laziness, is a noble pursuit and also a highly useful talent.
