In a nutshell? Spent a little over ten years as an actor in Chicago. Recently moved back to Hoosierland to be close to family. I just landed a job with an orthopaedic company that makes implants for children and still I find the time for an acting gig every now and again. I stay busy enough to keep out of trouble most of the time and I'm learning as I get older it's better to trust the One who leads, let go of control and try to enjoy the ride. It's not always easy to do and I'm a perfect dummy at it most of the time, but I'm sure tryin...Lessee...things I am passionate about...I love God. I love my family. I love the arts. I love being an Uncle. I love the outdoors. I love talking about the "stuff" of life and I have the sense of humor of a twelve-year-old. (nothing like a good fart joke)A good friend recently asked me what my ideal life would include if I could have everything I wanted, with all the essential elements and no limitations.I'm honestly not sure I know the answer to that. I'm kind of in the process of refiguring that out. I think, truly, I'm longing for heaven.But if I could bring a piece of it down to earth, I think, I THINK, it would be to live in such a way that I wasn't tied down to obligation or my own fears and hangups. The freedom to go where "the spirit" led me - whether it was God's spirit or my own, be in other places for awhile, sing, act, write when I felt the movement to do so and not feel like I was missing something when I wasn't, REALLY reach out and love other people, laugh...ALOT..., and of course I also really, really want someone that sees me and knows me and loves me and invests in me because they have chosen ME, someone that I see and know and love and choose and BELONG to in the same way, someone I can do all of the above with as well as chase around naked....ALOT..., and maybe even make a baby with....and watch grow old....and someday look back on a lifetime of all of those memories and sit on a porch somewhere blowing constant kisses form a grateful heart to God who was good enough to grant me those experiences, and that person to share them with...Yeah, I think that's it. I don't think it's geography or even a career path, though. I think it's more a state of being, or a state of mind.
