I Am

Who am I?
I am not limited to, but can be described as the following labels and physical descriptions: African-American, 10 month prostate cancer survivor, a loving friend, loving brother, loving uncle, gay, veteran, leader, spiritual being, professional, intellectual, a gentleman, Myers-Brigg INTJ, and astrologically a Leo with a Cancer ascendant. I am a integrated person and am fully confident in expressing all of these things in my life.

What do I care about?

I care about other people from all walks of life. We can never walk in another person's shoes, but we can walk part of the journey with them.

I care about things. People are more important than things, but things like dumbbells, treadmills, and healthy food transform people. So what would the world be like without things?

I care about ideas. Every person has ideas about who they are, how to run a business, how to pick their next car, how to show someone they care. If we had more people sharing ideas about how to love other people in the world more.

I will work to CARE more. Committing All Resources to Excellence (CARE)!

My Favorite Charity

Livestrong Foundation

To me, Transformation Means

Transformation means to live in a body you care about. Transformation means having a spirit that is joyful and tenacious in times of trouble. Transformation for me is living in a mindset that says "Body for LIFE + Eating for LIFE = LIVESTRONG for LIFE".

My Goals

My goal is to be at 15% body fat or below on Monday, May 10, 2010. I hope to weigh about 190 lbs or so at that body fat %, but the body fat percentage is most important. I am working toward a great "New Normal" as is often said in cancer recovery discussions.

My Intentions

None.

Who I'd Like to Inspire

I would like to inspire other prostate cancer survivors to let them know that life after prostate cancer can be a chance to renew your body, mind, and spirit. I am living on CST (*Cancer Standard TIme) for awhile and am working hard to get my life back to FST (Fred's Standard Time) as soon, albeit in my body's sweet time, as I can.
