I am a simple man, with complex thoughts, learn to read the book that is my life before you judge me by the covers. Discipline, honor, passion, and laughter these are just part of who I am. I do enjoy teaching but enjoy the lessons I learn more by interacting. Show me your intelligence and you may be surprised at what you get in return. __________________________
"In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit." ~ Albert Schweitzer
In these crazy days, I have found that which was missing, that which brings me into balance. It has been a great 7 months thus far.
Thank you for being my companion and partner thus far. Here is to the future.
"The
Perfect Bondage" is said to be one
man and one woman, the complete master
and the complete slave, ideal and perfect
for each other"s needs."

Dare to be yourself and you might be amazed what you find. Enjoy the simple pleasures and that will make the extravigant ones all the much better. My girl reminded me of this again recently and I thank her... enjoy each day... one day at a time.
I must say today was a great day, thank you for pleasing me in it.
"If you desire to handle a good war-horse so as to make his action the more magnificent and striking, you must refrain from pulling at his mouth with the bit as well as from spurring and whipping him. [...] but if you teach your horse to go with a light hand on the bit, and yet to hold his head well up and to arch his neck, you will be making him do just what the animal himself glories and delights in." ~ Xenophon - "The Art of Horsemanship"
I found an extra sock in the dryer the other day, must be from the mysterious dryer portal. I wonder where my favorite flannel disappeared to.
