How would you describe yourself?
About me (I am a wordy birdy!)...
I am simple in what I am here for, I am looking for someone to continue to grow with. As a full time mom that homeschools and runs her own business, I understand that it is hard to date in our modern times. I as much as the next person, appreciate technological advancement; that said, I want to be upfront that I am not interested in a primarily text based relationship. I like to hear your voice, your chuckle, your laughter, your sounds of dismay even - I don't have this pleasure if all I am doing is reading that little phone screen.
Fall 2014 - I am thrilled to see and feel autumn arrive. In March, I was injured while visiting D. C. I tore tendons and ligaments in my left ankle, leg and foot. As a result I also did considerable nerve damage. Sooo... I have spent the summer with a support boot; being that he was inevitably my summer companion, I named the boot Nikolas. Well, while Nikolas has been quite reliable and dependable, it is finally time to give him the boot (lol). Now, I am ready to hike, bike ride and enjoy the mountains around us again, just in time to absorb the colors of fall. I am also readying my lil crew for camping trip on the coast in early October.
More about who I am -
Sustainability is key for me - when we can it is back to basics, livin' off of and respecting the land, giving back to all around us, thoughtful choices, thoughtful actions.
I try to be organic in all that I do and I am eclectic in how I do it.
I love life. I love being in the moment. I love more than anything the tutelage of my children, their wisdom takes me back to where I am supposed to be.
I love the majestic beauty of a horse, the warmth of the earth falling through my hands, the rhythm of a drum circle. I love getting lost in the sunrise only to find myself wondering out through the sunset.
I love the music of the rain, the melodious sound of wind chimes, the look of mischief in ones eyes, the sound of laughter (these two particularly from my kids), waiting for the first sprout to peek through the soil, the smell of Spring green, the crackling of Fall as it rains color all around, the harmonious dance of the wind & the trees, snowflakes on eyelashes, the song of the katydid, the voices of birds, the lessons of the trees, the stories of the waterfalls...
I love to fly, to ride the waves, to flow with the stream.
I love the knowing that we are one and have the ability to make change - a change in us, in the environment, in the world.
There is much to be said for playing/dancing in the rain, kicking mud and falling down laughing (or kissing).
I enjoy pretty much all genres of music and books.
I love experiencing different types of food and different takes on the same 'ole recipe. I truly adore going to hole-in-the-wall restaurants and finding out that the secret was right there all the time.
I love to cook and experiment in the kitchen and on the grill. While cooking is fun with my kids, it is also particularly enjoyable when bumping into that someone special as we prepare a meal together.
I truly enjoy the exhaustion of a hard day's work... Despite the aches of a long day, there is something fulfilling in sweat and calluses.
There is a particular joy in falling down and in getting back up and giving it another go, I learn to love this too.
The act of 'doing' and 'being' with the kids brings a whole different pleasure and awareness - seeing things through their eyes is a gift like no other.
Gratitude is such a simple and basic practice; it is a way of understanding and a way of life for me and I hope for my kids as well.
What is my favorite this or that? I find it hard to close my options to one 'favorite' cause there is so much to do and see and experience. Too, I go by mood... Yesterday my favorite color was green and I couldn't live without a full pot of coffee. Today, I do believe it will either be red or orange (maybe both!) and I am yearning for a yummy cup of hot tea with honey.
I am me. Sounds simple enough, eh? I look at people as they are, as individuals. I try not to judge and clump people into categories.
I am conscious and strive towards not burdening people, places and moments with expectations. To me, expectations simply color things in a way that keeps us from seeing and experiencing the trueness of what is before us. Although something may not be what we think we want, in reality it is what it is and that is the way it is supposed to be - there it such a beauty in that!
That said, a true love of mine, in my spare time, is exploring various spiritual practices, energy works, meditation practices, Tai Chi and yoga practices, etc and by doing all of this I find myself appreciating the differences and likenesses in vast cultural beliefs. I am very much a non-conformist when it comes to my spiritual and personal self... I am ever-evolving.
I am looking for
Someone that is open to who I am.
Someone that is open to who they are.
Someone that recognizes we are each responsible for our own happiness and that our meeting and joining brings a joy all its own to who we are.
Someone that is interested in taking on the reality of being the reflection that we want to see in the world. Someone that is willing to work together, a power couple you might say, to grow and to serve by giving back.
Someone that is ready to peer into me and challenge me when I question myself or the world. Someone that is looking for the same from me. We are the other's mirror.
I yearn to see things through your eyes.
You appreciate my giddy moments, my quirkiness, my silliness, my passion and my desires... I want to appreciate yours as well.
You embody altruism and compassion.
You understand the beauty of and within children.
With you, I want to share my delight and excitement in tasting the juice of Summer's first glorious peach.
I want to spoil and to be spoiled.
You get it...
... Long make out sessions rivaling those of our teenage years.
... Handholding, gazing into each others eyes, absent mindedly rubbing the others arm or leg as we take a leisurely stroll, lay watching the stars, plan the garden, or hunt through the farmers market.
... A favorite picnic spot - they are anywhere and everywhere.
... The thrill of me learning about you and at the same time, learning more about me, the universe and the potential of it all.
... The anticipation of seeing that sweet adoring face.
... The catch of breath and thunder of my heart as I see you walk into the room.
... Butterflies in my stomach and spaghetti knees each and every time we kiss.
... An overwhelming desire to know the sweet utter acceptance and love of the person that was created to be your partner.
... Bliss.
If you can't tell... I am a hopeless romantic.
I am looking for passion on all levels - emotionally, physically, spiritually. Soul mate, twin flame, synchronicity - a true connection that cannot be denied. With but a look or a touch we will know total acceptance and undeniable love for who we are and who we are yet to be, together, as one. Serendipity's spell, magic all its own.
