Who I Am:
|
|
Just a touch on the introvert side, and happily so...in my case what that means mostly is that I prefer one-to-one conversation to large groups, though am not entirely averse to the latter - just that balance is important (something you could say about pretty much everything, of course). On the artsy side. Longtime believer in the idea of voluntary simplicity - except for one ill-chosen adventure in the realm of office work I've always kept expenses and possessions to a minimum and done what I truly loved doing. Co-raised a very thoughtful and funny child to young-adulthood (he graduates next month). Healthcare worker for nearly 10 years (the first job that ever felt like a true calling) until burnout snuck up and slapped me good...and in January began living and working at Cloud Mountain Meditation Retreat Center, a pretty big change of life that I was ready for in more ways than I can say. About a year ago I did a walking meditation in the middle of the night in the woods. At a certain point I stopped, turned toward the trees along the path and closed my eyes. When I opened them I saw what I can only describe as millions of tiny fish made of bright light swimming in all directions around and through me. It confirmed my already quite strong belief that there's far more to the world than is shoehorned into our society- and self-imposed view of reality. For anyone possibly interested in becoming more than friends: I'm a romantic fella, open, loyal, demonstrative, and a very imaginative lover (to elaborate on the last part of that sentence, just because I've been asked about it more than once: I include that bit of information because I think that, like all the other aspects I mention, compatibility in that department is important). I'm seeking someone who, should we click after knowing each other awhile, would like to develop a relationship of the deepest intimacy on every level - emotional, spiritual, physical, sensual. Yeah,I know that's close to sounding like some love-song (or dating site) cliche, but I've come close enough to it during the best parts of past relationships that I think it's entirely possible. Oh, and the photo on my profile is from 2006, but the only difference now is that my hair's much longer.

Someone who'd find a fair amount of the above traits appealing and who wouldn't run screaming from any of the others.
