My version of a painting hanging in my house. My first attempt at serious painting. During my short military career in Germany, I managed to travel the countryside most weekends. In the small towns scattered across Europe, places like this are common.
How would you design the city of the future?
My city of the future would be self-sustaining; transportation would be free as well as healthcare, and neighbors would treat each other with respect. Best of all, employment would be voluntary. Also, government would be minimal.
Call me a socialist-I don’t care. Everyone would be happy and life would be satisfying.
This is my rendition of a car I once owned. The colors were reversed as it was a white car with a red interior. However, I cannot for the life of me remember what happened to it. Those were turbulent times in my life.
A long, long time ago,
I can still remember how my country used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had the chance,
that I could make those people dance,
and maybe they’d be happy for a while.
But February made me shiver
with every order he delivered.
Bad news on the doorstep,
I couldn’t take one more step.
No, can’t remember if I cried,
when I heard the news of his wounded pride.
Something touched me deep inside,
the day, democracy died.
So bye bye my piece of the pie,
drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye, singin’ “This’ll be the Day that it dies.
This’ll be the Day that it dies.”
Adapted from Don McLeans. ‘American Pie’
Sorry folks, but I could not help myself. I am deeply concerned about the fate of our country.

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?
People have a natural tendency to express their opinions, without taking into account the opinions of others. It’s a simple matter of pausing your thinking long enough to truly understand the rationale of others.
