I am continually renewed through the cycles and rhythms of learning that are reflected in my life through nature in all its forms including humans. I owe my intimate link with the natural world, connection to the energetic world, artistic discipline, passion for inquiry and knowledge of a relational universe to elders, teachers, friends, colleagues and brief exchanges with fellow travelers. Here are a few glimpses:
