Hi. I’m Jon Gleman. Come share my journey with me. I think you will find it enlightening and enjoyable. That it will help bring you closer to the world around us and perhaps it will bestow a new way of looking at some of life’s everyday things.
I think it will help bring you closer to nature. That you will become more involved and part of our natural world, Mother Earth, and all our earth-born companions.

I’m retired now and dedicating my journey to generating awareness on just how fortunate we are to be part of life here on our planet, Mother Earth, and the responsibilities we have to protect and preserve our home.
I have a degree in biology from the University of Miami, and I have worked as an ecologist for many years. I also have an extensive background in electrical controls engineering. One thing that electrical controls engineering will teach you is that feedback is critical. Mother Earth has been giving us constant feedback on the issues we humans have created for our planet.
“For most of history, man has had to fight nature to survive; in this century he is beginning to realize that, in order to survive, he must protect it.” Jacques-Yves Cousteau
