The theme of being a representative of the hopes and dreams of those lives whom have gone before became a constant companion to me, as it became clear that I may be unique in all the world, but never would my life be alone. We are dependent on each other as a humanity
This taught me a very deep lesson: a human's life is not to be lived for only one purpose, but can fulfill many purposes. And ever-refining new purpose can reveal itself - if one is open. We, after all, are a multi-faceted assembly of many lives.

As a child with a curious mind, there were many questions, and as growing realized we were as a world living in a culminating time heading towards something.
There was and still is a love of the natural worlds, the quiet places, where essence can be sensed, the mystery of the night sky and of stars alongside.
There is a simplicity to living, and one of my joys is to reflect to others the brightness of themselves, particularly when dulled - to encourage the best whether as a therapist or as a friend. For, in responding to need, it is to find oneself in use looking towards a greater life, which is something that for me compels.

People and their stories – for me these have always been most fascinating. And not just their hi-story (although that too has always been of interest) much more their future story – their hopes and dreams and aspirations. For that, I believe, is where our tomorrows can be forged as more than just a continuation of the past, but a place and platform for the release of greater brilliance. And is that not a central pillar of our purpose here – to release more light into this world? That’s a core aspect of what the journey is for me. And, as I walk the development pathways of my own life, I try to learn how to actively support, encourage and champion all the great human qualities which await that burst of brilliance in other people’s lives.
