关于我

CURRENT MISSION

Right Here, Right Now

ABOUT ME

Open-minded and open-hearted; I study the human condition.

PHILOSOPHY

Ad majorem Dei gloriam

The colors of a rainbow / so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces / of people going by
I see friends shaking hands / sayin How do you do?
They’re really sayin I love you!

Porta patet, magis cor. (The door is open, even more the heart.)

Luceat lux vestra – Euer Licht soll leuchten – Let your light shine (Mt 5:16)

Christ lives through anyone who has an open heart and a willingness to be an instrument of God – just as Jesus did.
