Greg's Story
Life
Hello Class of 75 and the many others of you from the Dewitt and Lansing school districts.
It's amazing how very little high school has to do with anything that life can deal you. Although, it was a good time wasn't it?
I've had many experiences since graduating high school. To include living in Germany, Competitive Mountain Bike Racing, living high in the Colorado Rocky's, allot of water and snow skiing, and I now have settled and reside in Scottsdale Arizona. Yes, as crazy as it sounds most of my life's experiences include a good dose of adventure and plenty of adrenaline. Will I ever grow up?
Well, at 51 years of age I do believe that I've finally grown up although I am and probably always will be a little crazy. Do you see my photo? Those aren't my grand-children. Those are my two little babies that I love with all of my heart. Jacob 10 and Sophia 8. I really didn't think that I'd have kids. My busy life style wouldn't allow it. But I did it and I'm hugely happy that I did.
As I mentioned, I live in Scottsdale AZ now. If anyone is out here please look me up. I Own a Modern Contemporary Art Gallery in downtown Scottsdale. LKG contemporary 7171 Main St. Scottsdale AZ 85251.
Lastly, I've found myself Spiritually. My True Self. No Rules. No Dogma. No Judgement. Just My Higher Self, God and my connection to everyone, all things everywhere all the time. It begins with Unconditional Love and Forgiveness and it's an awesome way to live. I kick it everyday and meet incredible people around every corner.
I wish all who read this the absolute best.
Peace and Love,
Greg

Death is Like a Rose
...Expand for more
In the last year and half I've had a few experiences with death and sitting in hospitals with loved ones. The other day as I was watering my roses my wife came out and told me that the 27 year old sister to the teaching assistant of my sons class had died do to health complications and severe Down Syndrome. As she was telling me this I was cutting roses to take to the gallery. I held a large beautiful billowy Red and White one by the stem and clipped it. It was top heavy so it started to fall to the ground. In my successful attempt to save it I grabbed a handful of thorns. That's when TIME STOPPED. I was gazing into one of the most beautiful things that God has ever created while at the same time feeling the pain of the thorns digging into my fingers and palm. It was both Beautiful and painful all at the same time.
I've come to know death as one of the most beautiful experiences in life. Recently I stood by my father-in-laws bedside for 12 days as I watched his physical body wither away from the cancer that doctors found to be everywhere. He was comatose his last 9 days. While I watched his body whither I felt his Spirit becoming stronger as all of his accumulated masks from his past melted away. In his last few days I knew that he knew that nothing else ever mattered but his Oneness with his Creator. Much discord just fell away. On his 9th day he woke up from his coma, eyes wide open and stated, "There She is. My Mother. On the other side of the bridge, standing in the Light" He then closed his eyes never to open them again.
Death is like a Rose, it is painful, (for those loving family members left behind) however I know that it is Life's Most Beautiful Experience. To go back to The Source, Back to Ourselves, Back to The Great I Am. More Alive than we could ever imagine. Existing as One in the All Knowing.
