CURRENT MISSION Explore, explore, explore! ABOUT ME I am friendly, tolerant, empathetic, curious, hideously un-mechanical, ironic, happy and respectful. I enjoy talking to people of all ages (I used to coach a high school basketball team and gained so much from interacting with the kids). PHILOSOPHY This remains a work in progress. One should aspire to a life of significance. Materialism, though seductive, is not the answer. Relationships, connections, bringing a smile, laughing, touching someones life in a good way is the answer
Interested in Basketball
