About Wrandomness Written
My name is Clif, a thirty-something New Englander with a love of people and potential. I like: Movement. Change. Evolution. I like the rhythm of a dance through clouds of fresh powder. I like great conversations with good people that turn into a ripple in the fabric of possibility. I like feeling someone's soul in their words. I like inspiring the best is every person, every thing. I like the melody of music I've never heard, but always known. I like exploring the diversity of people, ideas, places, and times. I like discovering something new about the world every day.
