| Eye to eye, mind to mind, heart to heart; touching |
| about myself: |
I value integrity and creativity, kindness and mindfulness, sensuality, communication and, most of all, love. I appreciate an attitude of can-do optimism, why-not adventure, and "Yes" playfulness! I'm interested in sustainable culture, conscious evolution and personal growth. I love outdoor living, travel, music and brainstorming. My philosophy is one of allowing (acknowledging that certainty is an impossibility, so struggling for it sacrifices real potential); appreciating the truth, beauty and goodness I find around me; and recognizing that we can take responsibility (and liberation!) to consciously choose where to invest our attention, our time, and our efforts. Feeling appreciation and enthusiasm is a wonderful way to live!
I enjoy the simple luxuries of civilized living -- a soft and cozy, dry place to sleep; a yummy and balanced meal; a coffeehouse and a library. But beyond rest and sustenance, social connection and thought-stimulation, I find joy in the wilds of nature. The inscrutable magic of dynamic balance, the sweet perfume of pine, sage, and sea -- these speak to me more profoundly than baseball or flashy cars or the law of the land ever could. I find the inner aspects of nature equally fascinating: the universal language of music, the process of healing, the pleasures of sensuality ....
There's a lot about me I don't even know yet, but you're welcome to ask .... |

| about my work: |
| For decades I felt enslaved by the economic world. In my early 40s I committed myself to achieving financial independence -- not "wealth," but "enough, and a little more," as Joe Dominguez (author of Your Money Or Your Life) used to say. I left my job (and "working for a dying") at age 51. I now devote my time to my many interests, including daydreaming and learning; working on projects that I enjoy and believe in, such as environmental remediation, alternative transportation, and intentional community; outdoor recreation and adventure travel; and creative play with dear friends, including vocal improvisation. I would love to find a collaborator with whom to do a fun and worthwhile (timely and/or timeless) project or ongoing process. |
