Dear xxxxxx
How have you been? I had a long flight and I felt jet lagged. It is 6 hours
ahead of the time back home here. This is my first business trip to Guangzhou,
China and I am impressed with what I have seen so far. How are things back
home and how did your day go? The weather here is quite okay 27 degree. Yes I
live in Geneva, Since I would be away for few weeks I have decided to give you
some history about myself. I was born in Texas. My father being Half American-
Half German (his father was from a small village north-east of Berlin) and my
mother American My mother got married at a young age and had me when she was
only 23 years old. When I was 4 yrs we moved to Minneapolis in the United
States for a year and later to Florida where we lived until I was 14 years
old. Both my parents were teachers (mom - high school math and dad history at
the university). I loved my childhood dearly being in the United States, Going
to an International School and having friends from all over the world.
Unfortunately my parents marriage was never very stable my father had many
affairs, My parents finally got divorced the day after I turned 18 years old
and my father left without warning. The years that followed were difficult but
luckily my grandparents (my mom's parents) helped us through and my mother and
I became very close. While I tried to keep in touch with my father since the
divorce. He remarried shortly thereafter and contact occurred less and less I
did not like his wife nor did she like me. After a few years all contact was
broken off which I think was for the best for both of us and I was able to
move on. I can say that even though my parents divorce was painful, I was
quite lucky because those experiences helped me to evolve into who I am today
teaching me to appreciate life with its imperfections. Unfortunately my dad
passed on some few years after my first degree.
I got my degree in Mechanical Engineering from Columbia University, I went on
to University of Essex and received a Masters Degree in Applied Technology and
Business Administration. I got a job with a small Engineering firm at that
time and decided to settle in. Things were not going too well at work then.
That was a very difficult period in my life. I had to look inward for
happiness and learned a lot of lessons the very hard way. I later quit my job
after three and a half years of being static with little development of my
personal potential. After few years of jumping from one job to the other in
search of exposure, My big break finally came when I got a job with Boeing.
That kick started my career and after a few years, I started handling key
positions and establishing contacts. I quit my job with Boeing and later
formed a partnership with a friend until late in 2006 when I decided to work
independently. Since then I have been the CEO of my own company and I have
handled various projects around the world.
On the love front I got married to my wife after my Masters degree. We had a
lot of wonderful moments together. We were married for 19 years but after her
struggle with cancer she passed on in 2004. It was a difficult period for my
Daughter and I. I have had two relationships after my wife passed on and to
be honest with you I was looking for an exact replica of her so things did not
just work out. I am over that now as I have learned that making comparisons
with past relationships is not healthy for a relationship. We are all
different people with different minds and characteristics. I have also learned
that love is not by finding a perfect partner but by learning to see an
imperfect person perfectly, Accepting them for who they are. I do not live in
the past and I have taken a decision to live in the NOW! TODAY is a gift that
is why it is called PRESENT!
While my job is important to me I am happy with my current state and could
care less about material things. I am independent - neither Republican nor
Democrat (although I vote mostly democrat) I do not pay too much attention to
outer beauty what is important is the beauty in a person's heart, mind and
soul. I like to view myself that way beautiful from the inside out. I believe
that happiness is a decision one makes and while there have been many ups and
downs, My decision has always been to be happy. I always try to find the light
at the end of the tunnel or a window to open. Which is why I signed up for
Elite Partner. I'm interested in many things including: history, humanity and
world cultures. Nature is a healing and uplifting influence upon my spirit. I
consider myself a practical individual but grounded in good values. Am not
perfect but my sincere desire is to learn how to improve my imperfections.
My decision to move to Europe came as a result of the changing bio-fuel
environment among the EU nations. After handling a few projects in Belgium,
The Netherlands and Germany, I fell in love with the environment and after
undergoing feasibility studies I decided to permanently relocate here.
Locating my Company in Munich was due to legislation on bio-fuel usage in
Germany. My Company has benefited both technically and economically from the
incentives provided by the German Government to encourage the use of cleaner
and more environmentally friendly energy. I am looking to establish a branch
of my Company in Switzerland within the next few years.
I approach life with a sense of openness to new experiences and adventures,
Willing to try things previously. In this regard I have traveled extensively
around the globe -Europe, Turkey, Japan, India, South America, Canada, South
Pacific Islands, Caribbean Islands, Which gives value to time spent on this
planet is continuously giving me new perspectives that are filled with
exciting experiences and much spiritual and cultural enrichment.
Hopefully this mail is not too 'deep' or too long for you. I want to be open
and share with you who I am and what makes me. I would very much like to read
from you again. I would try to keep in touch. Take good care of yourself and
have a wonderful night.
Kind regards
Kelvin
