About

This website was conceived to inspire reinvention for those that have suffered loss or tragedy. I’ve spent my recent years reinventing myself in the search of Freedom, Independence, Justice and Wealth after a completely unexpected marriage breakdown.

Looking back, most of the time I had been on the wrong path, mainly putting into practice what was indoctrinated into me by parents and school and living up to other people’s expectations. But also being out of alignment with my natural being and experiencing lack of:  freedom, independence, justice and wealth in the world

At one point, I thought I had it all: beautiful wife, sons, good job, decent income except there was this life long echo of discontent in the background. Something was missing. Perhaps a little bit more money would do it and I ventured out into the lucrative world of IT contracting?

No, a little bit more money didn’t do it. in 2005 everything came crashing down around my ears when my wife suddenly said “I don’t love you any more, I want a divorce…”

The next three years were focused on emotional recovery. Then the credit crunch took away my livelihood as an IT Engineer and that with the what followed a disastrous attempt to create a property business with a trusted friend caused the loss of my savings and pension.

In hindsight all this was a life-saver. Gone now are the underlying echos of discontent replaced with a general feeling of equanimity and natural ease whatever my circumstances.

2005 is many years behind me, what has happened in that time? I learned to Scuba dive, learned to sail, another intimate relationship, the death of a loved one. Challenged the banking system and reclaiming my personal sovereignty.

My home is currently an old yacht named Glee in the Caribbean. Free and easy living as far away from bureaucratic interference as possible. I  blog about that at lifewithglee.com.

None of these things are responsible for how I feel in life but they all add to the fun of the jourmey. The secret is not out there, it is inside ourselves.

Everything that helped me out of the ashes in my former life is here somewhere in this website as a resource in order to help whoever happens across it.

I’m not here to preach on how life should be lived. I’m here to live my own life and share what I can.Not everyone likes Ketchup or HP sauce but it’s left on the table for those who want it. Same with everything in life. Take what you like and leave the rest.
