The Rope on HubPages

Wondering about my avatar & pic?  See my hub at http://hubpages.com/hub/The-Rope then drop me a line and let me know your thoughts and interest in or on the subject matter

I have two life speeds – fast and stop.  I’m either participating and working at top speed or I’m completely relaxed reading a book or working on the computer.  I almost envy people who have set normal paces for their lives.  Family, Business, Travel, Food, Books are just the beginnning of topics I enjoy.  I’ve traveled the northern hemisphere from meeting the Pope in Italy to driving cattle across Wyoming.  I’ve volunteered in nursing homes and shelters, for youth groups and in educational environments.  I've volunteered at church and in non-traditional environments as well as worked on various boards.  I am a previous business owner and a trainer at heart.  I've trained collection management teams, I've written construction collection programs, written and executed training programs for all levels of employees in customer service and call center environments .  I've set up retail sales environments and been everything from a regional manager to a business trainer to an office staffer but writing is a personal passion. My favorite subjects to keep up with are food manufacturers, art history and religion.  I love to hear others thoughts on almost any subject and I love to find really great customer service and reward it. 

Enjoy life, learn lots and don’t let the day to day take away the joy!
