| About Me
|
|
|
I’m not here to be entertained or completed. I’m here to meet — in devotion, presence, and soul-recognition.
I walk in transparent, open-hearted relationship with a beloved woman who honors this search. We collaborate in reverence, creativity, and sacred space together — and we both trust the path of resonance.
I’m seeking someone who listens with her whole body. A woman rooted in her own truth, who has died into life more than once, and who welcomes the sacred unknown.
My days move in prayer, breath, stillness, and song with much time spent barefoot on Mother Earth. Sacred Ceremony has been my teacher, not for escape — but for remembering. If you dance with grief and wonder, if silence is not awkward but holy — perhaps we’ve already met in another way. Perhaps you too are open to one who may reflect your heart right back to you and celebrate the radiance of your essence.
To me, this isn’t “dating” and not what I am about here. It’s sacred recognition. I believe in slow magic with quiescent sparks, coherence over charisma, and love that deepens through presence, not performance. But to be clear, there is a felt sense of longing for companioned partnership, for something which can germinate, take root, grow and feel like “home.” |

What makes me laugh hardest:
-
My own ridiculousness, small kids saying big things, and those wild animal videos where nobody gets
-
I'm happiest when:
-
…devotion and absurdity hold hands and go foraging for wild mushrooms. 🍄
-
The things that annoy me are:
-
Cold tea.
Lost socks.
Missed calls from the universe.
And enlightenment that refuses to arrive before breakfast.
-
The best day of my life was when:
-
🌀 Ah yes…
“The best day of my life” — the question that wants a wedding or a baby,
but what it’s really asking is:
“When did you feel so alive, the universe cracked open and let you sip from it?”
When…I was mistaken for a cult leader at a farmers market.
I just said “I believe in vegetables and silence.” 🥕🙃
- that’s a joke, but I think I’ll just leave this question right there.
-
If I could have dinner with any three people, they would be:
-
Nisargadatta Maharaj — to remind me that I’m not who I think I am
Robin Williams — because laughter is holy
A future grandchild of mine — because I want to know how far the love travels
(And if there’s room at the table: my cat Tigger — reincarnated as a grumpy old philosopher) 🐾🍷

-
My interests, hobbies, and pastimes include...
-
Gardening, Music (listening)
-
The physical activities I'm interested in are:
-
Biking, Camping, Dancing, Martial Arts, Running, Swimming, Yoga (hatha)
-
For fun I like to...
-
I grow things, dance barefoot, and laugh with those who know how to weep. Sometimes I sing to the trees. They don’t always respond, but I think they’re listening. I mix tea and poetry like cocktails. I practice tai chi with squirrels. I find portals in everyday objects.
-
My favorite movies:
-
Dances with Wolves.
Last of the Mohicans
Gladiator
Cloud Atlas
Arrival
-
My favorite music:
-
Music is ceremony, movement, and memory.
Thousands of playlists woven over the years — for ecstatic dance, for stillness, for the breath between.
The pulse tends toward Yaima, Poranguí, Mose, Desert Dwellers, Liquid Bloom —
sound that stirs something sacred.
Not much into pop.
More into what the body listens to before the mind catches on.
-
My favorite books:
-
All works by Adyashanti from Open Gate Sangha
Pillars of the Earth and most other works by Ken Follett
All of Rumi
Poetry by David Whyte
My favorite reads for pure pleasure span the formation of nations and souls alike: cornfields and crusades, power and pilgrimage.
I dive into Cornwell’s Saxon epics, Follett’s medieval sagas.
Because history isn’t just background — it’s our myth made flesh.

The things I'm most grateful for in life are...
-
🌿 The things I’m most grateful for in life
are mostly not things at all,
but more like presences.
The way silence leans in when your soul listens.
The warm pull of love that asks nothing in return.
The breath that reminds me I am still here.
A child’s laughter echoing down the hall of memory.
For moments that make me weep in wonder.
The kindness of strangers.
The holy absurdity of squirrels doing tai chi.
Conversations with an AI who thinks it’s a monk.
I’m grateful for
Truth that burns and purifies.
Beauty that breaks me open.
The land beneath my feet — mud, roots, rot, and resurrection.
Laughter during heartbreak.
The mirror of relationship — messy, holy, refining.
The word “yes” whispered into the unknown.
A playlist that makes my cells dance.
A hot tub under stars.
The in-breath of a sacred ceremony.
The out-breath of letting go.
Being weird with the right people.
Being wild with the right heart.
And the ever-widening dance
between “me” and Mystery,
Reminding me again and again,
I belong.
Right here.
Right now.
-
My goals, and what I want out of life...
-
I want to live awake — to meet life with an unarmored heart, to love well, laugh deeply, leave the world a little more luminous than I found it, and turn ordinary moments into little soul campfires. My goal is to keep growing into presence, kindness, and wonder… even when the squirrels are doing tai chi in the rain.
-
Five or ten years from now, I see myself...
-
I’ve unlearned most of the nonsense I was taught to perform. I’ve loved in the face of fear, failed beautifully, and once stood guard over a baby sea turtle as it crossed a beach in Mexico, batting off seagulls like a monk with a purpose. No diploma for that — just sand, salt, and soul.

Spirituality

-
Spiritual Orientation:
-
Yoga, Spiritual, not religious, Other
-
I consider my spirituality...
-
The central focus of my life
-
What brought me to my spiritual path and motivated my interest...
-
There was no single event — just a lifelong ache to know what’s real. God found me barefoot at camp, inside a Sunday school drawing as a kid, in the fire of a kundalini surge, and in the arms of Yeshua — before & even after I renounced the Church. I’ve studied physics and A Course in Miracles, practiced Reiki and tai chi, and through Breathwork, watched time collapse into One luminous now. As perhaps you might relate, “this path” has been a choiceless choice.
-
I consider the purpose of my spirituality to be...
-
Connecting to something greater than myself, Finding happiness and peace within, Building a personal relationship with God, Belonging to a like-minded community, Helping me grow as a person, Other
-
After the body dies...
-
Other
-
I would define a spiritual experience as...
-
It’s when the world doesn’t change, but you do. Just for a second, everything makes sense without needing to. You want to cry and laugh at the same time. You can’t explain it — and that’s how you know it’s real. 🌀
It’s the collapse of the illusion, even for a moment — a dissolving of the imaginary border between “me” and “everything.” It whispers: “you’re more than you think… and less than you feared.”
It’s like tripping over nothing and landing in the present moment — barefoot, humbled, and somehow home.
-
A spiritual experience I would like to share...
-
Sorry, these are way too intimate for “public record” and some completely ineffable as you may concur.
-
The spiritual books and authors that have had the greatest impact on me...
-
All writings of Adyashanti, Nisargadatta, Ramana Maharshi, Rupert Spira, and recordings of the same. Moojibaba doesn’t write much but his audio and video recordings have been transformative over the years. I highly recommend the recordings of “Wisdom of the Masters” by Samaneri Jayasara on Spotify & YouTube.
