| About Me
|
|
|
I have practiced yoga and meditation on and off for awhile. Recently, I have started practicing Buddhism (after discovering a monk in town) and studying A Course in Miracles (not a quick read). It's interesting to me how all three of these things overlap in very meaningful ways, especially the whole meditation and mindfulness part.
I am recently divorced and my spirituality has helped me more than words can say.
I am a simple guy looking for a women who is easy going like myself and with an easy smile... |

How I spend my free time:
- My exercise revolves around hiking, both local trails and around the Northeast. And I throw in the occasional mountain bike ride or rail trail walk. I started cold water plunging last winter, the medical benefits of intentional cold water immersion is interesting to me. I do also love yoga and meditation. I will occasionally do a full moon meditation if the weather cooperates, once I meditated under a full moon in January wrapped in a down sleeping bag, this summer I meditated under a full moon on a lake in a kayak, both were powerful for me.

Napoleon Dynamite an all time favorite:
-
I'm happiest when:
-
I'm happiest when I'm in nature hiking, kayaking, canoeing. My motto has been Hiking, Biking and Swimming. The other day I took the long way home through the back country roads, half of them dirt roads, it was peaceful and adventurous at the same time driving past the country homes, some nice houses, some trailers, seeing all of the farms and the occasional place for sale, it's nice to just get lost sometimes...
-
The things that annoy me are:
-
Sign pollution such as "Scenic Road Next 1.3 Miles" is one of my pet peeves, that's so unnecessary. I guess that's the minimalist in me showing.

The best day of my life was when:
-
The births of my son and daughter. And, I must say, the day I retired last year.
-
If I could have dinner with any three people, they would be:
-
I would like to be at the same table as Jesus and Helen Schucman, as she was the one who channeled Jesus and authored "A Course in Miracles". How interesting would that be...

-
My favorite music:
-
From classical music while cooking to Flo Rida while driving to Willy Nelson around the fire pit. I go through periods of time when I don't listen to much music. Then, times like now, when I listen to a lot of music. It is a reminder to me that I love music and also cherish my quiet time.
-
My favorite books:

Presently reading A Course In Miracles. And I keep reading The Four Nobel Truths. I actually find myself listening to more audiobooks and podcasts. I also watch YouTube travel stuff, particularly budget travel and slow travel content, great ways to stretch the dollar while traveling.
