Exactly how does one write a profile to precisely capture the desired audience? What magical combination of words can possibly attract the personification of the traits I find attractive or adequately portray my true essence as a person and a woman? Most importantly how many men really do read these profiles? Myself: I am self-sufficient (capable of killing spiders, investigating loud noises in the night with large dog at side, and tackling minor home repairs and improvements), educated (degreed with a liberal arts foundation), intelligent (have my own opinions but, astute enough to know that "different" doesn't necessarily mean "wrong"), articulate (I guess you’ll need to converse with me to ascertain that trait! lol), and attractive (or so I've been told) with a deep love for children, animals and the outdoors. Some of my greatest passions are dog rescue, training and fostering. Spending time at the dog parks is one of my favorite ways to de-stress. Additionally, being outside, whether working in the yard with headphones and music, walking trails with the dogs or sitting on a patio listening to wind chimes and birds sing is a must to retain my sanity!My friends and family have remarked that I am empathetic, naturally happy, unpretentious, patient, and have a calming influence on others. Basically, I see the joy in life and the good in people, and more often than not, accept them on their own terms. My goal is to live each day with love, grace, humility and gratitude. I've lived a fabulous live but, the past has not always been “”. However, it has been a wonderful opportunity for learning and growth. As a result, I am free from the past and have moved forward as a better person with more wisdom and life experience. Traits I appreciate in a man: Attractive (someone attractive to me both on the inside and out), intelligent (the ability carry on a cogent conversation and participate in playful banter), articulate (The ability and willingness to speak your thoughts, both positive and negative....What REALLY catches my attention and interest is excellent writing skills with correct spelling and proper grammar.Oh my!!), optimistic, warm, patient (able to laugh at the daily frustrations in life most of the time and can see progress, above imperfection) and a professional persona. Also a love of dogs would be a fantastic bonus, but at least a "like" is necessary. Essentially looking for my equal and complement....someone who "gets" me and would never dream of wanting to change me. Have you seen him????In a perfect world of infinite possibilities..... I seek a man that I can respect, admire and adore for an eternity; a man that can tolerate and perhaps even nurture my creative binges, can find humor in the chaos of living with a house full of pets, has the maturity to weather the storm and the wisdom and faith to embrace uncertainty. However, today, I'd like to start SLOWLY with a developing friendship and see what progresses. Down the road, who knows?.....Perhaps you will make my heart skip a beat. ;) Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I wish you abundant success in finding what you seek. :) For that first meeting my preference would be a quiet location, e.g., coffee shop, to facilitate getting to know one another better, to determine the presence of that initial "spark" OR potential friendship.

UPDATE. Yay I finished college. I am a graduate now. Just started a new career also. I have reached a time in my life.. Yes, I just turned the big 50.. and I think its awesome. So that being said, I plan on taking on a whole bunch of new things, new career in the works, finishing the book I have been writing, learning new hobbies like cake decorating.. Another new venture in my life SCHOOL.. At 50 I decided to go back to college and get a diploma. Its my present to myself. And I am loving it. I have 3 part time jobs that keep me hopping, but would definitely make time for the man of my dreams.... :) I believe that everything we go through in life is just as it was meant to be, and it creates us into who we are. We are all individuals, each with our own beauty. I try to always look for the beauty in everything and every situation. If you feel like life is kicking you around, maybe its simply trying to point you in the right direction. Truth. Honor. Integrity. Humor. And being in love with who your are first. Carry these traits with you and you are already a winner. Basically I want to find that person who will be my equal half, not my better half, and definitely not my other half. My equal half. He will know what turns me on, and what turns me off. (not talking about anything sexual either). He will come home from a hard day at work, and find a cute surprise, maybe I was at the store and picked up his favourite chocolate bar, put a ribbon on it, and a note that says, JUST CUZ YOU ARE SWEET. Ok, so you get the picture. I am a hopeless romantic, and believe in it whole heartedly. Come on guys, you all love to be romanced also.I would love to spoil my man with love , love, and more lovin.. muah... I am very spiritual, but not religious. I value friendship, honesty, compassion, oh and honesty again, and love. Good old fashioned God given blessed love. If it is given and received, then it will be enough to sustain you for a lifetime. Love is: Giving your best self for the good of someone else. Remember: "Its not about how long you live, its about how you live your life" I have a passion for writing, and find it also as a source of healing. All I have to offer is my heart, and for the right person, that will be more than they will ever need or want. I love being with my daughter, she is my life. Something simple, but not coffee.. ewwww. I would rather just wait and see who the person is, because each of us are unique and different. So, to describe a first date would be kinda strange.

This is the short version:I love to kick back with a glass of wine or pint of beer or forge ahead into the great outdoors. I'm a paddler and have my own canoe. I love adventuring in the city or out. I am a cat lady though dogs are cool too (and kids).I like midnight swims, spring showers, cooking over an open fire, dinners with friends, jeans and sweaters, good food, ice-cream, strong coffee (and 5 minute steeped tea). I like badminton, movies, books, dancing, singing, gardening, kissing, hiking, camping, feeling the wind against my face and the crunch of snow under my feet. I like to howl at the moon but I'm sometimes shy and need a push. Other times I light up a room.This is the longer version:I wanted to keep my profile short but perhaps I need to speak more to who I am and what it is I'm looking for. Perhaps this will narrow the responses I get...I only need one.I'm not lonely. I like where I'm at in my life. I like what I do, the things I've discovered about myself and the roads I've traveled down. I have a great family and a wonderful and ever growing group of friends. If I find someone to hold hands with ...well, that would be lovely and that's why I'm here.I want that special feeling that two people have when they look at each other across a crowded room. It's cliche, but it works.We need to be on the same page when it comes to humour. There's no hope if we can't make each other laugh. I can be silly, the clown, witty, dry, sarcastic or just cute and goofy. If you can make me laugh you will win my heart. I hope that's how I will win yours.Dancing. I love to dance. If you dance like a crazy ass punk rocker than we may be perfect for each other. This is not a prerequisite. It would just be nice.I almost didn't put relationship because it puts so much pressure on that first meeting. Or maybe even more so on the next which would really be our first date. The first meeting is really to see if we're on the same page or at the very least, the same chapter. And see if there's an attraction.It's important. Attraction. For women it's not necessarily how good looking you are. It could be your words, your confidence, your shyness or boldness. It could be your love of the outdoors or the way you smile. I like earnestness. I like handy men. I like soul. I like someone that isn't afraid to get his hands dirty. I like passion both with me and for the world. You needn't be vocal about your love of people and the earth. You just need to have it. It's important to me that your political views lean more to the left. I work-out because I have bad knees. I don't have a drop dead gorgeous body. I work-out so I can do the things I enjoy and not kill myself. I like to relax. I'm pretty laid back and so not high energy. I simply like to do a lot of different things. This doesn't mean I have an insurmountable amount of energy. In fact I need my down time. I'm not always good at communicating my feelings but I think it a very important part of keeping a relationship healthy. I like discussion. But I don't think we need to fill all the silence with words either. We all deserve respect and kindness. If we meet, let's keep it simple and easy and maybe at the very least have some intelligent conversation and a few laughs.I'm pragmatic. It's the journey, not the destination. Ok...the destination is good too!Yikes - That's one freakin' long profile. :) Let's meet and take it from there.
