by peter chase.  I sometimes think about the past, I never exist in the moment; but I always wonder what comes next.  I have hosted a life of pleasure, supped wine with presidents, reveled with rock royalty and dined with the G.O.A.T.   I have twice won the lifetime achievement award, or so it seems.  I learn more in defeat, but never lose.  I prefer the boardroom to an auditorium, the beach to a mountain, and an ocean to a stream.  I look one way when crossing the street, swim in rough waters, and dance too close to the edge.  I think in questions, see things others don’t and challenge what you believe. With eyes wide open, I dream.  I am me.
