Technologist, entrepreneur, writer, idealist, activist. A lot of things in our country and world are screwed up right now (government corruption is a prime example), and we can either just watch things get worse or tackle the problems head-on. We need to choose the latter path.

My Perfect Lover

My perfect lover is a wonderful person.

My perfect lover is no longer 20 years old.

My perfect lover is an American through and through, and at the same time a citizen of the world.

My perfect lover gets along with all kinds of people – young and old; white, black, brown, pink, or yellow; Christian, Buddist, Jew, or agnostic. She agrees with Martin Luther King that the content of one’s character is what’s most important. Conversely, she has little tolerance for those who lie or cheat or are insincere.

My perfect lover is an activist. She doesn’t sit around lamenting the sorry state of the world – she goes out and tries to change it for the better.

My perfect lover is a wonderful writer. She can touch your soul with just a few words (which is why she’s also such a terrific poet). She wants to write a book about her recent experiences, and she absolutely should -- it could be a best-seller.

My perfect lover is independent and thinks and decides for herself. She knows that even advice from her closest friends is colored by those individuals’ experiences and biases, and is not necessarily the best advice for her.

My perfect lover is continually learning more about herself and the world around her. She knows that that process must never end for her to get the most out of life and have the greatest impact on others.

My perfect lover has an incredible sense of humor, and even likes jokes with language and themes that could make most truck drivers blush.

My perfect lover always seeks the truth, although she knows it can be elusive at times. She believes in the zen philosophy that says that truth will triumph in the end, although she’s often impatient as to when that “end” is finally going to get here.
