About me... Over my thus far 74 years of glorious sunshine and also rain in my life, I've been a happy and excited maverick, leader, pioneer, musician, writer, explorer, incurable philosopher, teacher, inventor, innovator, builder and overall doer. I'm very grateful, always sincere and serious, but a guy who loves good humor. In fact, I personally put the "pun" in the word punishment. My life experiences have been extremely eclectic. I couldn't carry out all of my dreams, passions, vision, desire and intentions in 10 lifetimes. My hunger for truth, wisdom, learning and growth, and my interests and spirit are those of a true renaissance kind of guy. I want to learn and know lots of things, experience much and make a difference for good for people around me. It's faster and easier to mention what things I haven't been involved with along the way than those I have. I can tell you for instance that I haven't been an astronaut or a brain surgeon, but my "haven't done that" list seems to be getting shorter. I've had the aptitude, strong passion and great fortune to enthusiastically pursue and engage in a great and wide number of significant, highly diverse and important interests, opportunities and advances in lots of realms. As a life-long natural leader, innovator, inventor and avid learner I've created, developed and managed lots of new ventures and enterprises. Not all of them were winners by any means. On the contrary, some were left for dead. But all have had benefit and were very valuable in some way in my life and in the lives of others. Learning and insights at a minimum. I'll sum this up by saying that life in all of its awesome dimensions fully captivates and intrigues me. Thankfully I've come to know and spread some very good news from and about the Creator of it all. I love the Lord. I'm pressing on to get lots more done, much like a kid in a toy store with the clerk out on a break. All is well in the main, but all is of course not easy nor fun. However, the joy is that in and through it all I've always gained immensely, with hopefully even more for me still to come (TLW).
