John PatersonIt is uncommon to be with someone and to have the pleasure of experiencing parts of oneself mirrored back. Being with John Paterson creates a joy of experiencing yourself as loveable and loving. It is very special. John walks his talk of loving unconitionally. In fact, unconditional love is the essence of his spirituality. To find himself where he is today, John has taken a long and at times arduous journey. The middle child of seven siblings, he became an alcoholic at a very young age. Later, he found new maps that directed his travels into the corporate/consulting world, academic world, family world, and beyond. John earned a Master's degree in Leadership and is currently working in the addiction treatment field. The journey, not the destination, is what John holds sacred. Eternally questing, reflecting upon his "Inner World" and his "Outer World," recognizing available choices, and finding the courage to act upon them, defines John's current journeying. This, and more, he does with the greatest of gusto! He is a passionate, energetic, exuberant man, and he brings all of himself to everything he does. His life-long passion is discovering how human beings can access and express their deepest and broadest potential. He is also a gifted musician, devoted family man, and a lover of nature. John is reflected in every page of this book. Read More Read Less
