| Location | Portland, Oregon, United States |
| Introduction | I would describe myself as a student of life, eager to learn more about every facet of its complex prism, the light as well as shadows. I am in a transitory state; struggling, as each person does, to discover who I am and finally decide if I like the person I’ve discovered. |
| Interests | What are some of the things I am passionate and intense about? Archaeology; Jungian analytical psychology; Culture (big and small c); Different religions; different perspectives; mindful care of the mind, body, and soul; the breathtaking beauty of the natural world (especially the Pacific Northwest); the courage to love without condition or agenda; recognizing how fortunate I am to be alive and becoming conscious of both the light and shadows of myself and others; laughing at myself and enjoying the humor in life; discovering the uniqueness in every person and in every aspect of life; contributing to the community, both small & large, and thus to myself. (oh, and a good cup of coffee) |
