Hello Visitor!

I am a Canadian now retired in The Netherlands. Moving around this planet since I was knee high to a grasshopper has been both a blessing and a detriment.

Blessing - in that I lived in many countries amongst different peoples, experiencing different values to learn from all of it. It has also given me the best education anyone could possible have. It is from this School Of Life, that I graduated, to be the person I wanted to be. Today I am busy adding to the education knowledge doing post graduate study!

Detriment -  perhaps not the best selection of word, but the only one that popped into my brain in this moment of writing.

By this I mean that it has created in me a sense of restlessness, ever seeking for new ventures and experiences! I am not sure whether this is good or bad !

My Spitual Being tells me that this is necessary for me experiencing humaness, so I have come to accept it. Taking the lessons Life provides, and acting to learn them; as opposed to reacting to the sometimes less pleasant tasks in the lesson..
