I am an early morning, wind in the face kind of person with an intellect of genuine wonder, and an unconsumable passion for truth and beauty. I am an accomplished painter-writer, who teaches, sculpts, sings and dances.

I seek my psychological partner, a wise-guy-hipster . . . someone like a Ken Kesey/Allan Watts/David Byrne/Leonard Cohen kind of dude . . . a self-made-man, physically and financially sound, with an intellectually humorous wit . . . a rascallian in a suit who has rhythm, style and gets the cosmic joke. He who has a sense of purpose, a like-minded love for music, and believes that passion is the will to live.

"Words do not make the man understand . . . it takes the man to understand the words"

I am spiritual, not religious. To me, faith: is a readiness to accept the truth, whatever it may turn out to be; a commitment to life and one's own nature as it is.
