Foster tolerance. Swim with sharks--and live. Being a globetrotter causes one to respect Earth, cherish all life, and delight in laughter, for laughter is the universal language of joy. Below are but a few of the many paths I follow. To be a "good" guide, is to encourage discovery. Enjoy the ride. --John D. Ivanko |
