Bio
Most of the time, you'll find me reading, writing, contemplating existence, and enjoying the company of my dog, Max. I am on a spiritual quest, for God, truth, inner peace, that kind of stuff. You're welcome to follow along with me, if you'd like.

My beloved wife passed away some time ago, and I think of her from time to time. Life does go on, though, with an occasional feeling of emptiness.

I feel called to write. I teach college when I can, to keep my creditors at bay. I like to cook and try out new recipes, and I enjoy all kinds of good food. Music soothes my soul, especially when I play guitar and ukele. I try and not watch too much TV. I'm learning tai chi chuan, baguazhang, and qigong. I'm teaching myself wilderness photography and flyfishing. Mostly I just like the quiet, but good friends have a big place in my life, too.
