I've been divinely occupied with studying human nature... and the nature of life... all of my life... how does it really work? What am I doing 'here' and what are we doing here? I've read lots of books, attended many seminars & intensives and my most cherished wisdom is that which has come from inspiration and experience. That's the most rooted knowlege that resides within me. I decided years ago that although certain skills are well learned via apprenticeship, studying human nature and nature itself is best gleaned first hand in a front row seat and on the stage/playing field! It helps that my innate sense of intuition and even beyond that to divine knowing and understanding, is finely honed.

I've had lots of different jobs, occupations and businesses but don't identify them with myself as myself. It's curious that I don't identify myself by what I 'do' or have accomplished by way of occupation in the tradidional sense. Because of that I don't 'market' myself well at cocktail parties. I don't have a list of accomplishments at the ready to rattle off as a way of being known. I prefer to be with myself, as my Self and discover others as themSelves in the moment. Who are you now? Who am I now? This is not an easy conversation to have sometimes... most people don't know how to relate this way and I don't show up as expected.

What does show up is my faithfulness to love, delight, connectedness and truthfulness.

This 'operating system' that I manuver through life with doesn't conform to the norm very well. In fact it's quite rebellious in the face of what is considered 'the norm'. Devoting one's life to understanding the mystery of life itself is not really an 'accepted or cherished' career choice by public mainstream. I identify my self by what I've cultivated within myself and how I operate. I'm always at a loss for words when meeting new people and being asked 'what do I do?'...
