BPP: Identity: Who you are? And who you really are?
Cliff Warner: I am a 51
year old male living in the UK
who is both a freelance artist & a contracts manager.
On an
introspective level I would identify myself like all of us, - as spiritual beings having a human experience. My true identify
involves the empathy of sharing common emotions & experiences with others.
Through this I would say a purpose in life arises in achieving connected
awareness with everyone & everything.

BPP: If you could say something important you've learned all these years of your life, to the other people and they were able to listen to you, what would you like to tell them?
Cliff Warner: Nothing
lasts for ever except I am sure love; the kind of love I would intuitively say
has no opposite. A strong example of
this for me was losing 3 artist friends who died. Our years of continued
friendship & camaraderie came to a sudden end in this world, yet the love
of the friendship & their art continues.

BPP: How is life for the people in your country today? What do you wish to happen to them at to the people of this planet at large?
Cliff Warner: A sense of
fear, apathy & uncertainty exists with many in my country & the planet
at large. I would hope for supporting of each other in the small things, to
bring us closer as we come through; & survive these difficult times.

encouraging words from an art teacher one afternoon at school, that I should study

BPP: Something yours: Do you want to tell us something we didn't ask you until now?
Cliff Warner: I would
just like to finish with one of my favourite quotes.
"It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the
journey that matters, in the end."
- Ursula K. Le Guin.
