Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To BE happy, peaceful, loving, compassionate and true to myself - in this dream
ABOUT ME
Now, I have to make sure that I sound interesting. Not easy coz I think that I appear humble, can be very shy and sometimes very outgoing. I do not take life personal and have a tendency to laugh a lot about my ridicules 'Self'. After being a successful (thats what others say about me, I don't know what success is) entrepreneur I noticed that I had enough of trying to archive something. I love to connect with people and it helps me to grow.
PHILOSOPHY
Loving kindness appears to be the answer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Uhhh, well, guess I am not that amazing. Once I trained a search and rescue dog. Is that amazing? I fathered 3 kids - they are amazing - and I don't know if I can take any credits for that.
What is amazing anyway? I had moments were looking at a simple green leave would bring me down to my knees, that felt amazing. Life is amazing. Our bodies are amazing, they breath, heal, some function over 100 years. A water tap is amazing, when I open it, clear water comes out. Everything is sooo amazing, when I stop and look, I mean really look.
