CURRENT MISSION

Meeting new friends and exploring the world while leaving a kind heart print.

ABOUT ME

People accuse me of having a great outlook on life. Life is happening after all and our choice of attitude is free. Its one of the great choices we have. My head is not in the sand...I believe that when my glass is empty it has room to be refilled. I Love God and believe integrity is an action word. I'm easy to talk to and enjoy to listen if you will talk :) If you want to know what is on my mind just ask. I joke around a bit.. . it is wonderful to encourage others to smile and laugh together. I can be quite and thoughtful also. Born in the original Orange County Hospital. On the way up in the elevator I tried to get out early! God has tempered that impatience ... lots of stuff can wait. Grew up in the Southern California and Riverside area U.S.A. I have only traveled a bit. My ideal adventure is one spent with a congenial companion and it could be anything from a project we do together, or traveling across town, the country or the world. Life is such an adventure. Lets cherish and share each one. I hope to have the honor of meeting you one day and pray that your life is everything it can be.<><

PHILOSOPHY

Things are always changing. Life is not for wimps, it takes guts to live and live to the fullest possibly each day. When it all stops changing your probably dead. Don't worry the new "normal" is just around the bend. Look at yourself in the mirror and make sure you like yourself.

“To be idle requires a strong sense of personal identity. Stevenson”

Interests

I really enjoy fellowship. Love outdoor activities. I have camped out from early spring to late fall (snow fall). Snowboarded once, would love to go again, I fall real well and hope to make it to the bottom of the hill next time! Horseback riding, hunting, skating, walks, beachcombing, treasure hunting, croquet, etc... Also enjoy a good book. Board games and cards are fun. Long drives...planed or last minute. Photography, some gardening and enjoy sitting over a cup of something hot talking. Love music and dancing. I am learning to play the guitar. Coloring books, video games ... I am NEVER board. Can just relax and enjoy that also. Am open minded to trying new things, just not so open minded you could drive a truck through!
