When i decided to start posting things on-line i really wanted to find a nom de plume that somehow 'resonnated' with how i percieve myself to be.

In the Wim Wender's film "Wings of desire" the protagonist - un angel - has to make a decision: swap immortality for life and face up to the associated pain and strife that life brings, or continue to be invisible to all. Besides the point that he'd fallen in love with a human (Marion)

I'm not going into a synopsis here...

Generally, i'm pretty un-judgemental and take things and people as they come.

I accept things at face value but am equally aware that things are not always as they seem - scratch the surface, but beware.

I do my best to look out for others and point them in the right direction and make sure that they arrive at their destination in one piece - a bit of shepheard guiding his flock, if you prefer.

But i truly believe that sometimes it's better to not say or do anything - people have to learn for themselves.

Even if they take a few knocks, i'll always be there with a shoulder to lean (but not to cry) on.
