CURRENT MISSION

Learn something new every day.

My interests of late have been fine arts, painting, and hiking. I enjoy the company of friends, and cooking for them.

I'm at my most centred in nature, my most fun with friends, most peaceful sailing, and my most driven while painting.

I find life fascinating. I would be privileged to enjoy your story.

PHILOSOPHY

Listen first.

Respect is reciprocal.

Live and let live.

Results are proportional to effort.

Love one's self =/+ Love others.

Acceptance, honesty, loyalty, wonder, and dialogue

Feed the inner child, for whom the world is new and small, and the present is what matters most.
