Apart from pointing at things, and wanting to promote peace and love in the world, I play golf, coach rugby, practice mindfulness, and am a mental health advocate.  I also have a big appetite for reading and learning about new things, especially where they relate to helping people find their way in life.

I am happiest when laughing out loud with friends and family.
