| Introduction | Sankofa is an Akan word that means, "go back and take." We must go back and reclaim our past to move forward; we must understand why and how we came to be who we are today and the conditions we face. The Sankofa bird represents me. He flies forward symbolizing progress and looks back toward his foundation - to learn as well as to question; rethinking; taking from the past what is good and with an egg in his mouth to represent the future, carry forth that good for the next generation. |
| Interests | Generally interested in Existence and Being, quality of life improvements, and enlightenment upon man's inhumanity toward mankind. I'm introspective by nature and lean toward insight into higher achievement levels through a personal examination of self and the wealth therein. I believe we each are keenly capable of co-creating our lives through the gifts provided at birth-life. We are empowered to orchestrate our life experience much like a conductor's role in an orchestra. We can conduct our own experience in this physical reality through spiritual knowledge and its application in our life. Having said that, "we don't create the music, we accompany it and adapt to it." I am perfectly ok with God being my Creator and my Source of all things. I am also ok with Jesus as the example set before me for living. Now this is about me, isn't it? |

In the dream where you show up to school naked, why do you never go swimming?
I never go swimming because the school is representative of a learning environment and the pool is a metaphor of the mind for one to immerse themselves into the river of knowledge that leads to many places. I am naked because I really know nothing.
