Heroes
ANYONE WHO HAS STRUGGLED THROUGH HARD TIMES AND SUCCEEDED AND CAME OUT A BETTER PERSON FOR IT, AND LEARNED FROM THEIR STRUGGLES.I HAVE LEARNED ALOT OF HARD LESSONS IN THIS WORLD. YOU CAN ONLY LIVE YOUR LIFE THE BEST YOU CAN, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THINGS YOU CAN NOT CONTROL. LIVE EVERYDAY AS IT WAS YOUR LAST. CHERRISH EVERY MOMENT. LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES. THANK THOSE WHO HAVE HELPED YOU ALONG THE WAY, AND FORGET THOSE WHO HAVE NOT. LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO WASTE ON INSIGNIFICANT PROBLEMS. I TRY TO LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST.
36 y/o happily married, Master Scuba Diver, Rescue and Recovery Diver, Army veteran Corps. of Combat Engineers. I work full time as an Intelligence Officer,and part time with the County Coroner as a Death Investigator. I LOVE to learn. I have an endless capacity to remember things that I learn, especially if it interests me. I am a sponge for knowledge. I don't have time for Bullshit, and like things my way, my time table. I am a realist in todays world and don't pretend things are better than they are. If I could be on vacation all the time I would. I am a perfectionist, I strive to be the best I can at what ever I am doing. I take personal failings hard, but use them to learn and better myself. I seek knowledge from those who know more about what I want to learn. I am sometimes brutally honest and to the point rude about my observations.I am a doer and not a talker. I am into activities that test me against myself. I am obssesive beyond rationale when I get it in my mind to do something. I have high expectations of myself and others when it comes to doing what you say. If you say it, mean it, do it.I am not really as bad as I make myself out to be.....probably worse!!! Once you really get to know me, you will see I am not that much of an A-hole. I just like people to be genuine and honest.
A MENTOR AND STUDENT: WADE FERNALD AND ME. A MAN I RESPECT AND ADMIRE.
Who I'd like to meet:
ANYONE WHO IS SPONTANEOUS IN NATURE. WHO IS UP FOR A NEW CHALLENGE WITH ME. ANYONE WHO LOVES THE OUTDOORS. SCUBA DIVERS, RIVER BOARDERS, PEOPLE WHO DON'T TAKE LIFE SO SERIOUSLY THAT THEY CAN'T ENJOY THEMSELVES. FEARLESS YET RESPECTFUL.
