The quote at the top of this page is from my grandfather when he was 101 years young. I had asked him if he had “any advice for young people today”. He leaned back, closed his eyes, and 5 minutes later he opened them and said:

“Know your skills, your talents, your gifts,
share them freely with others,
And live with a sense of purpose and belonging”.
~ Harold van Gorder, 1901-2008

My grandfather lived to be 107 and his words have become my personal creed.  Helping people find and complete their own life’s missions is a passion of mine, and I find myself amassing whatever skills necessary to help them and to make the world a more engaging and interesting place.
