Date people from Mount Olive, United States. Is this not the way our forefathers had in mind for us to meet when they penned that constitution of ours? Guess the bar at Bottega or the campground at Lake Guntersville just wasn't in the cards. We can talk about you, talk about me, talk about the market - the Dow or the peaches in Chilton County. We can talk about church on Sunday, or why our world is happy yet there is a piece of the puzzle missing. I'm 6 feet, 215, and learned a long time ago I'm not very good at reading the future, but I believe with everything I have that happiness and success and spirituality are not the same without someone by your side. As much as we like to believe we want to be swept off our feet, we first need to be swept off our heart. What is wrong with expecting some other things like communication, integrity and having a few things in common? And a little independence and energy are good. It would be nice if you or your kids enjoy sports. I don't know much about the blue line in hockey, but I love when friends bring their kids to the farm. And I hope you like spending a weekend in the mountains, the beach or go on some adventure to find a piece of our past. I never get tired of history and the Carolinas, or some B&B in Virginia or on the East Coast, or watching a good football game. And you better like having your door opened - not to impress you but that's just how I grew up. Maybe my priorities are messed up, but I think life's a little more tolerable when you share the stars and sand and the silly things we do away from the madness of work.
