Hello there. I will just start typing and see if this ends up coherent and useful... hopefully both. I am at a stage in my life where most of my energy and financial resources are going to be put into an animal rescue I hope to open in 2027, 2028 at the latest. I do not have any conceptualization of how big or small it will be, but it will be at the very least a "working cat" rescue for all those ferals to have an outside forever home to live on who are currently stuck in cages in various shelters. I am vegan and was so before I began researching Buddhism, so it predates any Buddhist precepts governing my life. I say this because it is important to me and I have not had good luck dating women who are not vegan, so acceptance of and at least appreciation for my being vegan is pretty darn important. I do not consider myself a practicing Buddhist, but as a beginner (2-3 years into my Buddhist journey) I am "teaching myself" as the late great Shunryu Suzuki has taught me through the words he left behind in his books. I am a mental health therapist as far as my day job goes. I hope to find the person I go on my last first date with and commit to and love that person with all my being for the rest of the time I have on this earth... seriously. I understand some women have a hard time being with and will even reject men who desire and love them and show it. I need to be able to do that with my person, so if you need an emotionally unavailable mate and/or someone who is not really that into you to trigger your inner desire for them, we will not click. It's not good or bad, it's just what makes us tick, I mean no offense and speak from experience being with such women, it just doesn't work. I work out and stay in shape as much for mental health reasons as anything else and the appreciation for health and longevity is something I need to share with my partner. I am starting to overthink this.. I think, and don't want to reach for stuff to say just to say... like I just did so I will close this out and hope after reading this you say hi and we can go from there :) |

How I spend my free time:
- I currently have a lot of flexibility with my daily schedule, but I fill it up with things like Judo class, weight training, cardio, experimenting with vegan recipes, signing up for dharmaMatch to find my actual, no kidding, one in a million, human soul mate :) My absolute favorite this to do is lay in bed or on the couch or get down on the floor with my boy Magnus, the half Siamese if you please half grey taby who is sitting on my chest in one of my pics.

| Personality

|
-
My Personality:
-
Intuitive, Strong, Confident
-
When out with friends, I'm usually:
-
Trying to be a good listener
-
What makes me laugh hardest:
-
My mom and I have a frighteningly similar sense of humor and no one makes me laugh harder.
-
I'm happiest when:
-
I'm with my children, my animals/spirits, and/or in nature.
-
The things that annoy me are:
-
Smokers who think the earth is their ashtray and everyone else wants to inhale their cancer fumes.
-
The best day of my life was when:
-
I've had a few that qualify, but hopefully the one best day is still in front of me.
-
If I could have dinner with any three people, they would be:
-
There is no way I could pick a top three, way too many to choose from. Gut response is too easy-one of my two adult children. They live in different states and I don't get to see either of them nearly enough. Actually, as I think about this I do have at least one of the three for certain: my Soul Mate. Whoever you are and wherever you are, I would give up the other two dinner dates for just one with you. I would then fly to Wisconsin and Utah to have dinner with my daughter and then my son and tell them all about you because I'm their father and they have to meet me for dinner, I don't have to use a magical thinking wish to eat dinner with them. So come find me Soul Mate, and make my magical thinking wish of a dinner date and spending the rest of my life with you come true.
