| About Me
|
|
|
Namaste..."It's all set to a slow moving, non--materialistic: "Ode to Joy"... Fading slowly into a very large herbivorous, yet acutely redefined amphibious mammal... Though a true air breathing land dweller which has adapted to become one of the quickest, strongest and most agile beings on eARTh while in direct contact with H2O!? A Taurus /Tiger that has always felt equally at home in the ocean, sea, lake, river, stream or, just in a saline water swimming pool..."As I do with my feet planted in/on terra firma"... Though I have LITEly ever tread in the realm of any formal/normal "belief system"... I have always tended to travel "freely" throughout "The Connected Universe"... From "The Higgs Boson(coming soon to a particle accelerater near YOU?)", or "The Planck Length"(1.616(97) X 10-35) and on through the heART of "OUR SUN", then on to the outer edges of YOUr known "Universe" and beyond!? Rarely have ! traveled in that "New Age" and always I have managed stay on the hardest path to follow for those who can not "SEE" for themselves or just feel like memorizing someone else's "WORDS" and never really "TH!NK" to try to understand any of those "WORDS"...
I was a small child when this "ALL" began to fold and unfold... Some what like "A Flower of L!Fe"... metamorphosizing into a "Tree of L!FE"!?
But, "L!Ving L!Fe" with "Inner Vision" and some real humor: !t can always be like a "fine" bottle of French champagne: Light bodied, a pale golden yellow, full of bubbles and "IT" should always have a sweet/dry aftertaste... "Cathartic" but, never... ever allowed to turn "Sardonic"?? ~ Cooking for me has been "a L!Fe long passion" and it started with collecting finely crafted copper cookware in Paris, when ! was quite young... So, ! have always paid very close attention to all the best examples, as I was growing up... Recently I've began to dial-in a proper lite-weight backpacking kit and would love to revisit all of the many vista's I missed while speeding through that world. I love to garden and would love to get back to growing all of my own organic veggies, fruit tree's and colorful flowers. For years I designed and built very custom dwellings and sold them to my lucky customer's...Now I would love to create a fully sustainable home environment for myself and a co-creating special companion!?

How I spend my free time:
- BEING envolved in L!Fe CREATIVELY... I love to read! Walk,hike,camp,backpack, or bike... quietly meditating on the summit and finding meditation encapsulated in every fractal of L!Fe on eARTh... I'm always in hot pursuit of that one more perfect cup of coffee, or TO serve and be served TEA ceremoniously... To SWIM hard laps or any other full contact WATER born activity is ever pleasing... Making things with a creative mind and my own two hands is a truly magical feeling!? In my garden cultivating organic vegetables... In dream time: A ruminating siesta in a hammock(made for two) while hanging on the front porch( of that perfect house)... or better yet: from tree's in the forest, next to a slow moving stream, in a "far out" away beach, or in some long lost wilderness...

My Personality:
-
Creative, Intelligent, Intuitive
-
When out with friends, I'm usually:
-
Trying to be a good listener
-
What makes me laugh hardest:
-
Lenny Bruce, Jonathan Winters or Robin Williams...
-
I'm happiest when:
-
I'M BEING CREATIVE, Reading, SWIMMING( because it's purely hard meditation), sitting around a table with intelligent, like-minded people or, weeding in the magical cosmic garden, Being in the act of learning through obtaining any new quantum form of knowledge, or when I'm on a stroll through the Sierra's on a ultralite trek~ I now have an up scale ultralite backpacking set-up that fits my extra large needs and will fit an expansion into a duo: a free standing 3 person tent with enough room to live freely and comfortably for 3 seasons...
-
The things that annoy me are:
-
It all begins with "Plato's Noble Lie"!?
-
The best day of my life was when:
-
When I'm fully awake and aware, that I've got both feet solidly grounded and placed on the eARTh to start "TODAY"... one breathe at a time!!
-
If I could have dinner with any three people, they would be:
-
"Why three??"... Leonardo da Vinci , Thomas Jefferson and Archimedes...Tenzin Gyatso, Yeshua bar Yoseph and Mary Magdalene ... Buddha, Krishna, Shiva... Osiris, Isis, Horus... Galileo Galilee, Isaac Newton, Johannes Kepler... Michelangelo, Vattoria Colonna, Benedetto Fontanini ("Benefico de Cristiano")... Henri Matisse, Cazanne, Monet... Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray, Max Ernst...
Quite a banquet and this could be a simple "Beginning" to it "ALL"!? ~ Or, the simpler way to understand the most about "YOU"... l would invite you, your mother and her mother?
