I am a forty something or other male manly person...former
landscape designer and installer.  I sold my business after I went
crazy and was put into a mental ward.  Funny how customers
demand their contractors remain sane at all times.  I decided to
start a career in art, as my clients always claimed I was an artist
working on a grand scale, and also as no one expects artists to
be sane...quite the contrary, so it's a natural fit.  I also am a
published poet.  Writing, art and music are therapeutic to me.  
Those activities keep the demons at bay and explain away the
ones that get across my door.  My motto is: "Everything is within
your grasp, nothing is within your control...A firm grip is
delusional thinking."  I made that up myself...it came from
experience.
