A True Cowboy in a Cosmopolitan Setting!!!
I choose my battles very carefully...take life as it comes and am kind and respectful to all.
I will read anything that is written...volunteer for anything worthwhile and have absolutely no time for people who don't have a sense of humor.
I believe that Love, good Love, is in great demand and short supply. So, if you are capable of loving and not everyone is, it doesn't matter whom you love as long as you do love.
I am a very self-contained individual. I enjoy my company, have absolutely no problem being alone and entertain myself very well. I don't Drink or do Drugs and have very little time for those who do.
There are 3 things that I truly love: Hearing a Child laugh, Listening to the Elderly relive their glory days and watching Horses run full gallop.
I was born with the gift of Conflict Resolution. From the Playground, To the Classroom, To the Boardroom. For me, it is as natural as breathing. The key is listening to and respecting the people involved. We all deserve to be respected, heard and understood.
The only thing we owe one another is the truth as we see it. What that person does with that truth, have absolutely nothing to do with you. You have paid them the highest honor. They will process it in their own way and in their own time.
I take friendships very seriously...which is why I don't have many.
Betrayal to me is about the same as being kicked in the face by a spooked Horse. The pain eventually goes away, but the emotional disfigurement is forever embedded and the trust can rarely, if ever, be established again.
I live and operate in a "DRAMA FREE" zone.
Bigotry & Negativity in any form is never welcomed here.
I am a good-natured guy, playful to no end, who will probably die laughing.
"Anger and Resentment is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die."

"It is the weak who are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected of the strong."

Feature Film Script Editing @ Preparing Screenplays for Production Quality Submissions: Grammatical Corrections, Scene Continuity and Character Suggestions.
What makes what I do a little different than most Editors is I have an uncanny, wicked musicality. I know what music is necessary to move a scene properly, which is usually the task of the Music Editor. I make a compact disc of the music and mark it with a particular scene. This is different than writing a score for a movie. However, it gives you a sense of what is needed and also gives a Producer the tone of the story as you make your pitch.
