A kind, earnest, and reflective man who is interested in exploring with another man some of the larger meanings and experiences of his life. I am little short of astonished to find myself now at the age I'm at. How did it happen, how did I survive some of the hard times I had to endure, how was I lucky enough to be blessed with some great good opportunity and fortune along the way, and what directions do I best take—including the best ways to keep giving back, as I continue my journey on the planet.
