Living an authentic life in the 21st century is hard. Harder than anything I think I’ve ever tried or thought to try. Everywhere we are pushed to be something, do something, change something so we can fit in. So we can be accepted.
This blog is my attempt to share what’s going on in my head. What makes me tick regardless of how all y’all feel about it. If it helps you, if it makes you smile, if it makes you cry — hell if it makes you feel anything at all, that’s a bonus.
It started as a way to keep my friends and family up to date on the details of my life as I traveled around the world for work and play. It has become a place where I try to find my voice and speak it. Mostly, I do.
Contribute, comment, share, forward, or shun. I just hope you will find you have some reaction to me. For that is when we know we have connected.
Thanks for stopping by.
