Hi folks,
I’ve been posting on the forum for a few weeks now, so I guess I ought to introduce myself. I’ve chosen the handle kSage (or maybe it chose me). I have an incredible sense of humor that is completely lost in the text of the internet. People who meet me after first getting to know me online have a hard time believing I’m the same person. Something about computers sucks the life right out of me.
I love the “firsts” in life. The first time you lock eyes with someone, the first time you hear their laugh, the first touch, the first embarassing story they reveal, the first spark of connection, the first feeling it is going too fast, the first time you pull away, the first time you reconnect, the first time you consipire, the first inside joke, the first nickname, the first kiss. Oddly enough, though, I still prefer the middle of relationships to the start of them, as the most powerful and meaningful firsts don’t start until after you’ve gotten past the first intimacies: the first fight, the first make up, the first sacrifice you make for the other, the first “I’ll never be able to thank you enough,” the first time you realize that this person is amazing beyond comprehension, the first time you notice you’ve already fallen in love.
I am an experienced explorer of inner space, still keenly interested in any form of mind altering. I am an experienced meditator, a certified practitioner of both NLP and DHE, a former motorcycle racer, and frequent visitor to Esalen. I am interested in pheremones as another way to alter one’s state of mind. I also enjoy exploring the world both near and far.
I’m a 43 year old man, a successful high tech entrepreneur, a film director, and resident of Santa Monica, CA, USA. I left my heart in San Francisco where I spent most of my adult life. I don’t ski. I don’t like snow. I don’t like Southern California (where I live now) either, but that’s because it’s too spread out and too boring. The main things to do here are shop, eat, see a movie, and enjoy the weather, none of which thrill me. Maybe I’d like it here better if I surfed.
I’m more of an introvert than an extrovert. When I took the Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator, I scored exactly in the middle for the other 3 axes. I take that as evidence that my life-long commitment to balance and being all I can be has met with great success, although of course there’s always more to do.
That’s all I’m telling you.
