About me and who I'm looking for

About me:

I am someone who believes that each day can be like, opening-up a brand new present. And the fantastic thing is that, WE get to decide just how wonderful we want that gift to be. I have finally came to realize, that it's not so much, about wondering whether or not the day will be a good one , but rather in making the solid decision, that we simply intend that it will be. Reading Eckhart Tolle's, "The Power of Now", and "A New Earth", and reflections of the wisdom of my parents, and grandmother has had a profound affect on the way, I now look at life. So, I am someone who now puts joy right at the very top of my list. I make no excuses-other than to say, "How can we fill up another's cup, if our own is empty?" I am very echo minded, enjoy the simple things in life, and being around like-minded individuals. I am originally from New Orleans, and although I would never live there again. I truly do love going back for visits, finding my favorite bench in Jackson Square, listening to the cathedral chimes, and a saxaphone's soul drifting on a breeze, with all those wonderful familar smells, even of that old muddy river. I love to cook, take long walks at Twilight, my best part of the day. I never tire of looking at a night sky. I am always amazed by it's magnificence! I love to dance, love good music, it's a wonderful way to unwind in the evening. I am not that big on television. I am a self-confessed bookworm, and love writing. I do like to go to the movies especially funny ones, laughter is also big on my list !

I'm looking for:

Someone with similar interests, passionate about living, joyful, definitely a non-smoker. Age is just a # to me. I feel what's most attractive in someone, is their vibrancy, and zest for life. To not only dream, but to still believe that they can come true. When I was 19 my best friend, and confidante was an 83 yr. old gentleman poet. Also someone bold enough, to allow true emotions to show, who can share both his joys and dreams, but also fears and sorrows. Allowing me the same, just to sit and listen, without feeling the need to fix anything. I believe that is what true intimacy is all about. Any relationship must start-out as freindship first, otherwise you have nothing to build on. You have to really like a person first, and then see where it may or may-not go from there !
