About Me

Compassionate, caring, honest, passionate, a visionary, focused, a dreamer, someone who will stand by you when things get tough, my word is my bond, a gentleman, positive, helpful, a teacher, a student, willing to submit to my mentors and coaches, honour my country and the soldiers who defend it and preserve my freedom. I try to live each day by the 'Golden Rule'.
I am a proud supporter of www.shared-books.com and www.roomtoread.org We need authors and illustrators. Ask how you can participate in this worthy cause. Think of us. We need fans. We need children books. We need to spread the word.
I want to live a life of significance, a life of purpose. I want to live my life as a meaningful specific, rather than as a wandering generality.
"There is a choice that you have to make with everything that you do, but keep in mind that in the end, the choice you make makes you." - John C. Maxwell
I live in a happy, loving lifelong relationship with my common-law wife for over 11 years and I'm not looking for a partner or a date.
I will give you hope, uplift you, empower you with the tools and the vehicle you need, and help you achieve your dreams and goals if you will put in the required effort.
"There is no definition of a successful life that does not include service to others.
Life without such an experience would, perhaps, be considered an insignificant life."
- Jimmy Carter, Nobel Prize Winner and Former President of the United States of America
"Never forget that life can only be nobly inspired and rightly lived if you take it bravely and gallantly, as a splendid adventure in which you are setting out into an unknown country, to face many a danger, to meet many a joy, to find many a comrade, to win and lose many a battle." - Annie Besant
God Does Answer Prayer
I asked for strength, and God gave me difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for wisdom, and God gave me problems to solve.
I asked for prosperity, and God gave me brain and braun to work.
I asked for courage, and God gave me danger to overcome.
I asked for love, and God gave me troubled people to help.
I asked for favors, and God gave me opportunities.
I received nothing I wanted, but I received everything that I needed.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Would like to connect with ambitious people who are not prepared to settle for average, who don't see themselves working in dead-end jobs for 40 years, who want more out of life and are prepared to do what it take to achieve their dreams.

I Use To Have A Comfort Zone

I use to have a comfort zone where I knew I couldn't fail. The same four walls and busy work were really more like jail. I longed so much to do the things that I'd never done before. And I stayed insi...

Beholdeth Here Comes a Dreamer

Beholdeth here comes a dreamer, and I am not alone. Dreamers dream at night, but beware of the dreamers who dream with their eyes open. Beware of the people who can dream during the day. I call them ...
