LIVING KIND: words, music & imagination

Living kind is embracing your curiosity, going for the dream, and opening doors so you can always give back.

“Life is mostly froth and bubble; Two things stand like stone: Kindness in another’s trouble, Courage in our own.”

—Adam Lindsay Gordon—

LIVING KIND

Have any questions? That is the best first step. I’ve always been an inquisitive guy. Loved meeting people, seeing sights, and discovering life all around us. It propelled me into my natural love of music, art, poetry, prose and travel. If I could put into a phrase “Being part of a living kind begins with getting up and putting on your socks! (If you wear socks.)”
