It’s not usual for me to lose sleep…dreaming about things that could have been…but these past few nights in distant hotels and changing beds I’ve been restless. I have this urgent optimism…so don’t mistake my statement…this uneasiness is about opportunity – the emerging clarity from fantasy – and making the accumulation of course corrections. I am not sure of the exact way this works…but it affords the time to look outward for inspiration…and see in my reflection the ability to be brave, and say what I wanna say. This is akin to cultivating a friendship with the monster that’s under our bed…we each have one – it lives there to remind us that along with the voices inside our head – we are all just a little crazy…and the enormity of this creates poets and magicians and all kinds of super heroes – only if you embrace it. So it matters then how you emerge from this state-of-mind…are you paralyzed and live inside this predisposition, or do you take the advice of the little green Jedi master…there is no try, only do. So I act because I can…I chose the most ludicrous and outrageous, and seek out truths free of fears and judgement because I can…and I chose to make sure the life I live is the unlived life within because I can – I must.

I do a number of things professionally...but most of all and the true purpose of what I do through "my work" is to provide for my family, be a good husband and great father, and try to make a difference as a world citizen...I guess it's not much more complicated than that 🙂
