About Me

"wabi-sabi is the Japanese art of finding beauty in imperfection and profundity in nature, of accepting the natural cycle of growth, decay, and death. . . it reveres authenticity above all" - tadao andoBeing a wabi-sabi woman in our American culture can be a challenge. My mother has always told me, "It's not so much that people change, but that they become more truly who they really are." The experience of authenticity, for me, is much more a process of uncovering, that discovering. Lofty words, right? But what does it really mean? My path is the process of figuring that out.I love to read. I love to follow my curiosity down twisting paths of research. I love to combine science, nature, literature and daily experiences into syncretic creations that I can share with clients and congregations. I love to public speak. I love to laugh and have a truly obnoxious appreciation of puns. I love my parents and enjoy long conversations with them both, on a weekly basis. I LOVE my kid! She is the most amazing person I have ever met and has taught me more about how to practice authenticity, in the past 8 years, than I could have imagined possible. I love being a mother and all the opportunities to become a better person that if presents. I love the intense aliveness that I experience when I am intimately connecting with people. I love to listen to people's stories about what is real for them, what makes them come alive, regardless of what that is. Enthusiasm is a huge turn on for me. I have been losing my hearing since I was 5 years old and am now almost completely deaf. I have phenomenal speech-reading skills, and most people would never know how hearing impaired I am. My hearing loss leads to some of my most contradicting realities. I love music, but can't understand lyrics. This may be why most of my favorite music is either world or ***, although I am an avid fan of classic rock. Oh, and the blues - that's a wabi-sabi thing, for sure. I love to listen to people, but often I hear more of what is not being said and that can offend some people. A lot of people hide behind their words, not realizing how much their body language is giving away. Because of the energy it takes, I am not a fan of small talk. I'd rather sit in silence with someone than exchange banalities. I value face-to-face communication above all else, but have a kid-on-Christmas-morning love for technology, too. Texting and FaceTime rock! Good God, I have no idea how to answer this. So much would depend on you! I love to learn and experience new things, and since enthusiasm is such a turn on for me, I can imagine that sharing something you wildly enjoy would work. I can imagine that meeting for coffee or frozen yogurt, over a game of Scrabble or Clue, could be fun. I love taking long drives and motorcycle rides. I really enjoy DIY projects and power tools. I enjoy boating and being on or near the water. I love hiking and discovering new places. I also enjoy cooking (and eating), as well as watching others cook.

    I am a big believer that a person manifests the life they focus on creating. I am a dreamer, and a hard worker at the same time. I think it's important to learn from everything that life presents, even though it's sometimes difficult. It's so important to be able to communicate with a partner, even when the subject might be difficult, or scary. I am a very understanding person, and there is always a solution, in my mind. The one thing I find I lose patience on, after awhile, is when there isn't action to back up someone's words. We all have things we strive to do, and sometimes, things fall to the side, but if this is a rule, rather than an exception with you, we won't get along. I'm being honest so as to not waste my time, or yours. I am a woman of action, and I am seeking someone who has a similar approach to living. I'm very active in creating the vision of the life I want, and I'm always looking for signs and guidance from the Universe and world. My work at this time enables me to travel the country, and the blessing of my career so far has opened up so many opportunities, and I am grateful for all of it. A new chapter is on the horizon for me, and just what it will be is still incubating. Meeting someone who enjoys building things with beauty, style, and finesse would be incredible. Nature provides such an amazing backdrop, and a healthy, comfortable, beautiful home in the woods would be a slice of heaven in my mind. Animals and the natural world have, and always will be a huge part of my life, so it's important to me that my significant other can appreciate animals and nature. I LOVE to snorkel, scuba dive, and go sailing. Camping, hiking, and picnics near a river or lake are high on my list also. Enjoying this world, compassion, passion, a sense of humor, emotional connection, physical attraction and communicating each day are key elements for me in a relationship. As I said, I've always been able to be a loner, and I still have an independent part of myself; but I so value the close-knit relationships I have in my life. Yes, I do need alone time, but that allows me to recharge, and be my best with the ones I love. I am seeking someone who can be there for me, as I am a very loyal person who stands by those who have her heart. I love to travel, go on ecotours and help other people. A vacation to just relax is great too, but giving back to others reverberates exponentially. Sharing that with someone who can be my complement and equal, who is centered, balanced, happy, comfortable with who he is, and excited by life would be an amazing gift. I believe that we are all individuals, and cultivating who we are adds depth to our relationships. I am seeking a partner to walk shoulder to shoulder with through life, supporting each other, to create an amazing life. I will be working on improving myself until the end of my days, and am looking for a man who is comfortable with who he is, but doesn't settle for mediocrity. Someone who will truly be a student of life. I know that a loving, passionate, strong partnership is one of the most incredible experiences a person can have in life. Disclaimer #1: Please, if you don't have a photo, don't say you'll send a photo to my *** I have provided photos of myself, and it's only fair to reciprocate. Disclaimer #2: I travel around the US with my work FOR NOW, not forever. I love my work, and it serves the purpose of reaching some goals. I have other aspirations, and ideas to bring to life, so no, this is not a lifelong lifestyle choice. Circumstances change, opportunities arise, and when that special person and I click, my path will adjust accordingly in order to be together. Something involving a nature-filled place, like an arboretum, Japanese garden, or aquarium. A place to walk, and talk, and see if there are sparks.

    Woman. 39 years old. Zodiac sign: Scorpio.

    Looking for: man. In age: 36-46

    I am a very independent person, and love to enjoy life and the friends i have around me. I would like to find the right person that i can share the good times with and enjoy all that life has to offer us! This does not mean that i am looking for anything close to a one night stand. I am looking for the right person that has the time and desire to spend time learning about each other while enjoying a great ride along the way! I am very aware of what i will and will not accept in my life. I moved to the south about 15 years ago, and fell in love with being here. I love being outdoors in the beautiful weather (yes, even the heat!) so anything i can find outside always peaks my interest.I love most types of music….i truly believe its good for the soul! I also enjoy hitting up the comedy clubs... laughing can never be bad. I do enjoy a good cup of coffee-starts the day on a good note!A true man does not need to romance a different girl every night, A TRUE MAN romances the same girl for the rest of his life. CHEERS
