A gentle thinker of what hides beyond thoughts. A generalist alert for new concepts, and so both deep and shallow in my world view. I integrate with an open mind and the weave of a rationalist. I love calm discussions, I love the honesty to talk of meanings; I enjoy intense stimulated speculations about the state and direction of the world. I wish to listen to your story, I wish to learn what you've been thinking all these years. I relax in silence.
