About Me
"Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along."
— Rumi
Who am I? Well, 15 years ago the doctors gave me 3 days to live. I pulled the IV's out of my arm, checked myself out of the hospital and have not looked back since. I walked away from a $150,000 a year job and have been squeezing every bit of goodness out of every day I can.
I am a homebody who likes to travel; an organic eater, who likes high quality wine and beer; have immense insight, yet can trip over an adjective; filled with patience, yet there are still those things that get under my skin; emotionally strong, but cried most of the way home after dropping my son off at college; deeply spiritual, yet howl when watching football;
I have walked across fire in my bare feet without a mark on them, spent over 45 minutes under a waterfall in march with huge icicles on it and lived to tell the tale (Native American death ceremony), sky dived from 15,000 feet, sat in the Mexican desert for 4 days and nights without food , water or cover (Native American vision quest), been down class 5 rapids (I hear there's a class 6!).. Definitely into the adventure of unlimited possibilities. love my work, love my downtime; looking for someone to share the mystery of life, playfully. I am very, very playful, so, someone who takes life very seriously would not be a good match.
I am very kind and believe in the good in myself and others. I laugh out loud alot, at myself mostly. I find life a very ironic thing. Running a suicide-crisis hotline, humor is how I stay sane. Humbleness and empathy about the immense pain others carry is how I know God.
I love to cuddle, hold hands, lots of physical contact and knowing the depths of another's soul as I continue to dig deeper inside my own. I am looking for someone who is as transparent as I am, willing to risk your heart, and have a large appetite for physical closeness, all the while standing strong in our own processes. If we're a match your process and mine will have a part that is ours, while doing our best to support yours and mine.
I live a fairly healthy lifestyle starting my days with meditation, green tea, journaling and watching the birds at the feeders in my backyard. Of course, lovemaking with my life partner is a great way to start any day!
I have been told I am "train-stopping" deep, yet have a master's degree in silly. I have been around the block enough times to know relationships take a lot of work and acceptance, especially once the honeymoon is over; but, I've also learned a bit about re-igniting honeymoons. I am looking for my last first kiss.
My pics are extremely recent and I have put the dates taken in captions.
I have traveled extensively, from the Ukraine, swam in the Baltic Sea, been inside the Great Pyramid on the Gaza Strip in Egypt, Masada and Jerusalem in Israel, Mexico, Canada, England, Scotland, been through every state but North Dakota and Alaska. Alaska is on my list to do, but next year I'm going to Italy. What's on your list...let's go!!
I have been very successful in several different fields and have recently gone back to school to re-invent myself again. I am healthy, fit and love to hike these beautiful mountains. I love being of service to others. I have no doubt the finances will follow. But, as I am concentrating on school right now, I have put down an honest assessment of where they are presently.
I seek and create the extraordinary, all from a humble place of awe, wonder and joy. I also, being human, freak out, get scared and find myself cleaning up messes I have inadvertently created. PS-I am very good at cleaning up my own messes.
If what I've said here resonates with you, please contact me. It could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship..(movie reference, my favorite)..and who knows where it will go from there!
What I'm Looking For
