Introduction
I'm caring, understanding, trustworthy, and easygoing. Although I'm a realist, I tend to look on the brighter side of life and have a good sense of humor.
I love to pursue knowledge, and enjoy the wisdom found in quotes both in and out of the Bible. You might think I read a lot, but I don't. I read some books, but mainly I read people as I apply experience, only to discover that I'm gaining more as I learn from their experiences.
What am I looking for? I would like to have a partner to whom I'm attracted physically, but as far as I'm concerned, beauty cannot hold a candle to personality, inner beauty, and compatibility. Besides, beauty lasts only a season, and harmony can last forever.

Something fun, of course. But, much more than that. When we meet, I will want to know more about you and, hopefully, you would feel the same about me. I love to listen, so let's get to know each other better. Let us write. Let us talk. Let us meet. Let us share. Let us discover.

Okay, this is going to seem like I'm boasting, but usually I'm pretty humble.
The reasons you should get to know me are...
Because I have a great sense of humor, a variety of interests, and would be a good companion. Our similarities are probably many, and our differences, if any, would be complementary. You could say goodbye to boredom. I honestly feel that your life would be better if you knew me.
God said to man that it wasn't good for him to alone. A little later, man said to woman that it wasn't good for her to be alone. That might be the best reason of all as to why you should know me. No more loneliness.

That I should avoid taking someone else for granted, and that there are a lot of good people, but only one who is best for me.
Past relationships have taught me to be more selective in choosing my partner, and that arm candy is simply not enough. I've learned that I should choose someone who could be a friend and so much more. After all, "A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be." - Douglas Pagels. "A friend encourages your dreams and offers advice -- but when you don't follow it, they still respect and love you." - Doris Wild Helmering. And one more... "A friend hears the music in my heart and sings the lyrics should I forget the words." - luckyten.

God, America, people in general, friends in particular, animals, and the beauty of nature. Of course, I forgot two things, without which one cannot enjoy the rest... food and water! :-)
|
Good people (or a good person), good fun, and good food. And I also like my days to have some inspiration - a Bible verse, a saying, music, a book, or a movie, play, or even TV. A variety of exercises would also be included in my perfect day, preferably with a friend or companion.

I've been a member of American Mensa for several years. Think top two percent. Maybe I just got lucky when I passed their test. On the other hand, maybe it was by the grace of God. Search "Mensa" and "American Mensa" or ask me about it if you would like to learn more.
If you're interested in me, drop me a note and let me know, because just being a Mensan doesn't make me a mind reader.
