Peace!  Salam!  Shalom! Paz! 평화!

Like diamonds we're born in the rough.  If we're lucky, life smooths our many facets.  Then, we just need a little polishing.  After that, we're pure transmitters of light and color.  Shine on!

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth may be a revolutionary act."  (George Orwell)
 
My name is Gregory C. Brundage.  I've been writing professionally for journals, newspapers and magazines for more than 25 years.  Though in the past, I wrote about many subjects including neo-nazi organizations, wars, and serial killers, these days I prefer sports and arts.  It's what makes me happy!  World peace through sports!  Hay, why not? 
 
Though I have an American passport, I've lived in and traveled though some 23 countries starting at the age of six.  So I see the U.S. from both the inside out, and the outside in.  I like to think of myself as a responsible world citizen.
 
My father is a distinguished professor, and my mother's father was a prolific writer, lecturer (i.e. Harvard University), and radio commentator.  I myself was a university student for 15 years, because I loved learning, and especially research.
 
I hope this homepage can inspire you to learn about your world, capture it in words and photos, and help communicate your views to the larger global village. 
 

RULES FOR READERS:
 
Don't believe everything you read in the news. Everyone is biased.  News is supposed to be balanced and fair, but, rarely is this really the case.  Though I read news from many sources, I critically analyze it.  Press organizations like Reporters Without Borders often display outrageous bias sometimes.  They under-report some censorship, while loudly broadcasting others.  Is, "A" really more free and fair, or cruel and corrupt than "B" (?) I ask myself often.   
 
Be a discriminating reader!  Things are often not what they appear on the surface.  Read broadly, and more importantly, think.

A good host is infinately polite to guests.  It is a sacred responsibility.
 
Take a deep breath.  Relax.  Be comfortable.  A refreshed mind is more open to experiencing life.  

Peace to all who enter here.  At some time in the future I'll figure out how to add the smell of a forest after the rain, the scents of jasmine, lotus, lilac, fall leaves and the sea.
