Date men and women from United States / California / Oakdale, 54 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am a down to earth, sensible, and self confident. I am a musician and a composer sometimes, and an artist, sometimes. I always try to maintain a good positive outlook on life. I am an animal lover, all the time, and some animals I would actually prefer over some people that I have known. I have a good sense of humor, and I love to laugh. I like to travel, and see new places, but I also enjoy my quiet time at home. I love the beauty of mountains and the ocean. I am content and secure in my life. I was born and raised in Maryland but spent much of my life in Florida and California.
I lost my wife some years ago after a long battle with cancer, so I have had my share of heartache just like everyone else, however, I always keep in mind that things could always be worse, and eventually they will get better, they always do. It is all part of life.
I love life and all that it has to offer, but it is so much better when you have someone to share it with.
I enjoy doing just about anything with the right person, and I have found that who you are with is more important than where you are.
What I am looking for in a match is someone who is kind, loving, sensual, honest, intelligent, caring, playful, with a youthful mind, heart and soul, someone that is happy within themselves. Naturally there needs to be a physical attraction, and I want to be proud of the woman who is by my side, but the color of your hair and eyes, or your occupation is not as important to me as who you are. If you think that we may have something in common, send me a message. I know you are out there somewhere. Sorry but no photo, no reply...
