This "Schoolboy Heart..." seeks to capture the "Spirit of the Great Heart" and live this wonderful ride we call life

So.. important question...first or third person.. First person feels odd but third person seems so pretentious..so.. First person it is! Now that we have established our protocol, what to say...hmm.

I spent my formidable years living Floridays, waterlogged on a beach for all seasons. My vagabond spirit found a perfect home doing technology and business start-up consulting for the last 20 years having started while in college and never really stopped. Along the way, I have worked and lived in Europe to South America. I have experienced beaches, mountains, and plains and I have come to realize that I need to be near some natural center, be they mountains or a beach/ocean.

I love to explore and learn new things. I am a perpetual student of things that expand my mind, body and spirit. I study internal martial arts (Tai Chi, Bagua, Kung-Fu), Taoist philosophy, Buddhism and traditional eastern medicine and I am always looking for new ways to branch out.

Life is a balancing act which requires enough variety to keep us mentally and physically strong. I love to sit at home.. reading a book, watching a movie or just listening to music but I also have to go out, to try new restaurants, new coffee shops, hike new trails, and boat/swim new rivers, lakes, and oceans.

Some folks say I am a walking contradiction but I think I posses a duality fitting for our times. I am a lover of modern technology yet I yearn for the traditions and history of the mountains. I help drive the future of computing but study thousand year old texts on health, medicine, martial arts and philosophy. I work hard and enjoy the benefits as a uber-consumer but always with an eye for the environment an eco causes. I believe I make all these things work.

I am devoted to my 2 boys, current ages 10 and 12, who live mostly with their mother and sometimes with me. I spend as much time with them as I can.

My match can be so many different things but a few things always seem to stand out: A desire to embrace life and try/learn new things and a willingness to laugh and have a good time.. Can you laugh at life and at yourself sometimes? Do you like to push yourself physically and still accept luxury and pampering? Perhaps not all at the same time but..

Have a social conscious without it overwhelming your life? Believe in karma and what goes around comes around? My Match sees this and more...

I love to the idea of creativity and am interested in all the ways it is manifested and how individual the creation process is. I am not an artist but I am creative and express it in some writing, conversations, my work, my physical life. Life is all about expression...without it where are we?
