About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to explore the world smiling, to listen to and love all whom I meet, to live fully present

PHILOSOPHY

Keep walking, though there's no place to get to.
Don't try to see through the distances.
That's not for human beings. Move within,
but don't move the way fear makes you move.
-Rumi

Me, I figure as each breath goes by,
I only own my mind.
.........
I know that I was born and I know that Ill die.
The in between is mine. I am mine.
-Eddie Vedder

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I sat and the sky slowly lightened from its soul-encompassing blackness. I noticed the first rays of light began to lend texture and story to the fallen moai. On the rim of the cliff face overlooking the ancient quarry on Isla de Pascua I thought, "this is truly what it means to be living" and I breathed in to take the sunrise on Rapa Nui, the world's most mysterious island, with me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Bow-Drill Fires & Home Brew: I'd love to share either.
