I’m attracted to, interested in, and comfortable with, all kinds of people, but definitely most enjoy interacting with those with some breadth, depth, and flexibility in their thinking, interests, and approach to life – who are willing to share what they think and feel, know and do, need and desire.

I’m hoping to meet fun, interesting, and compatible people who inspire, encourage, and/or (help) bring out the best in me… as a friend, lover, (dance, workout, travel, or life) partner, and/or business client/contact… and allow me to the same for them!

I’m open to almost any individual (including misfits, mavericks, oddballs, outlaws, rebels, and rogues) who might be able to accept and appreciate me for who I am and what I have to offer, contribute, and share. Having character is more appealing to me than being a character.

I’m eager to discover what makes YOU unique, special, appealing – (and worth honoring, celebrating, and including) in MY life. Please be open, honest, and vulnerable. Show me who you really are. I will attempt to do the same. People who know me well are aware that (despite a certain superficial charm) I can be moody. The good news is that I (usually) don’t take it personally when others are. I strive to create and maintain a “safe space” that allows others to express whatever is “true” for them. Although I do seem to like to talk (when I have something to say), I am also a very good listener.

To me, there are no “weeds” or anything/anyone without value. It astounds and bothers me that MOST of the assets and resources in the world/people’s lives are overlooked, disregarded, or misunderstood.

One of my favorite words is APPRECIATION – which means to increase in value. I also like the words COMPLEMENT and COMPLIMENT- which both supplement and complete in harmonious ways, acknowledging appreciated aspects of something or someone (else).

If what we focus on expands, then it makes sense to seek out, acknowledge and be grateful for the abundant inherent beauty, value, and significance of everything and everyone around us. Expressing sincere appreciation and compliments are considered by some to be among the fastest, easiest, most sustainable ways to increase or acquire what we desire. I hope you, like me, are willing to give it a try.

I value integrity, wisdom, balance, trust, openness, cooperation… and KINDNESS.

Acts of kindness need not (only) be random.

Please mean what you say, say what you mean – and be kind!

If you can’t say something in a kind, tactful, considerate, compassionate, respectful way (and still be honest and tell the truth), I’d prefer that you wait until you can. This includes pointing out my own inconsistencies and failures to always walk my talk. I do value your observations and feedback – even when they are not “favorable”. Just be clear about wanting to help rather than hurt or hinder me. Anything else is unacceptable (and will be dealt with accordingly).

Better than a kind thought is a kind word; better still is a kind deed.

Please be so kind as to let me know you were here. I welcome your comments, friendship, and support.
