Wild Fact About Me I was a Green Beret in the Army Special Forces (1962-65). I thank God/Great Spirit/Universe that I never took a life, or caused human suffering. After leaving the Army I became a peace activist while at college and helped end the Vietnam war, along with the millions of other peace activists in the world.
My Philosophy Peace begins in my heart!
What Gives Me Hope My 6 year old grand-daughter, Arianna Ocean, and the worldwide movement of individuals and organizations believing in, and working for peace, environmental sustainability, and social justice. I no longer hope for another TrueLove in my life (Maybe in my next life-time...LOL).
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by If I were a magic mayor, I'd wave a magic carrot over Mendoland & Southern Ecotopia and turn all the too many meat-eating folks into vegans, veggies and raw foodies...
What/who changed my life and why Some books that have inspired me are: 'A Year to Live' (Stephen Levine), 'Keeping the Love You Find' (Harville Hendrix), 'World As Lover-World As Self' (Joanna Macy), 'Ecotopia' and 'Ecotopia Emerging' (Ernest Callenbach), 'Crossing to Avalon' (Jean Shinoda Bolin),...more and more...
What Bugs Me dumbed-down culture, dumbed-down people  
Passions Networking for peace and sustainability!

Quotation "Je ne connais qu'un devoir, c'est celui d'aimer. "

I know only one duty, that is to love.
~Albert Camus

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow, What a Ride!'
