About Me

JD Blackstar is my sobriquet. I'm a proponent of Ks3. Ks-cubed (Ks3), is a positive concept/paradigm that promotes well-being. It encompasses the needs for general health, being physically active, a balanced diet, emotional and psychological health, personal safety, and myriad sociological factors (e.g. spirituality, personal freedoms). While some of the subject areas seem broad and divergent they really aren't. Whether or not we're fully cognizant of it we deal with these issues daily. My goal, which I believe to be one we all basically share, is to find the most efficacious manner to meet these challenges.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Innovative individuals or groups, potential clients, potential business partners, multi-faceted people. "Big picture people" or those ready to explore both the inside and the outside of the proverbial "box". In short, any and everyone who is interested in growth and progression.

Time and Consideration

In this economy it's easy to get caught up in the quagmire of negativity. Our resources don't quite stretch as far as they did even a year ago. Fuel prices seem to grow exponentially by the moment. No...
