The quest for more knowledge, the meaning of life, the philosophical questions—my mind is always occupied, and what’s exciting is when I get to follow through with an insight and do something.  I am an abstract future thinker, looking at things from different perspectives.  I’m about the relationships and possibilities and enjoy anything with deeper meaning that leaves me wondering, with more questions to ask and things to untangle.  Connecting for me means being able to intuitively ask questions of people to get them to go deeper into the things they are talking about.

Inspiring others, helping them find their purpose or meaning, being a different kind of leader from what’s traditional—that’s really gratifying.  I just do that naturally.  The challenge is opening up people’s minds to have their own original thoughts.  I’m a listener and guide.  

I think I am a mystery to people.  They never really understand me and part of me enjoys that.  More often though, I long to be understood.

I tend to approach my day with a structured way of getting things accomplished.  People see me as organized, thorough, and easy to get along with, pulling my own weight and eager to help out when called upon.  But I’m not as outgoing or as critical as I may sometimes appear.  I need a balance between people contact and working on creative projects and will break away from interactions when I get tired out.  If I don’t have some long-term goals, then what’s the point?

I tend to intuitively read people very quickly, but I have to be cautious not to make assumptions.  I’m an observer.  I get a feeling when people are interesting, and I watch from a distance, make some assessments about the situation, and then approach them and engage in conversation.  I put a little bit out and a little more and see how that goes.  Do I trust and like them, are they who they say?  I have a few deep friendships.  A friendship comes best when it is worked to develop that investment.  I quickly pick up on sincerity and withdraw if the person is superficial or obviously doesn’t care.  When I see people who abuse their power or won’t stand behind what they say, that ticks me off.  It’s about integrity.  I feel other people’s feelings, and taking on that burden can make me too intense and serious, where I can’t be spontaneous and fun loving.

I roll the window down
And then begin to breathe in
The darkest country road
And the strong scent of evergreen
From the passenger seat as you are driving me home.

Then looking upwards
I strain my eyes and try
To tell the difference between shooting stars and satellites
From the passenger seat as you are driving me home.

"do they collide?"
I ask and you smile.
With my feet on the dash
The world doesn't matter.

When you feel embarrassed then i'll be your pride
When you need directions then i'll be the guide
For all time.
For all time.
