Date men and women from United States / California / El Dorado Hills, 55 year old

Date single man from California, United States. I am a very happy person, by nature, and strive to keep an attitude of gratitude every day. I am also confident, and very open about who I am, and not afraid to show that to others. I will laugh out loud during a funny play, or cry during a sad movie (I prefer to laugh, though!!!). I am very encouraging of others, and I keep bitterness, resentment, blame, and the like out of my life. I am emotionally calm - except for the laughing part, and I believe that any issues can be resolved with discussion and understanding. Many people find it very easy to share what's happening in their lives with me because they feel very safe doing so. Although I have a strong sense of morality, people find me to be nonjudgemental about their views, thoughts, actions. I love having projects to work on, either around the house, or in social groups, and like to think that I'm pretty handy. I enjoy cooking, especially if it's to share something with someone special. I like to travel, to hike, to experience life. I am not a fan of television generally, and almost never watch it, but will occasionally, if with someone else. I would much prefer to use that time to make meaningful connections with those around me. I love seeing people succeed at things they didn't know they could do, and believe that we are capable of much more than we really realize. I really enjoy doing things for others.
I'm looking for someone who loves to laugh, is optimistic, is open to lots of exciting, new adventures, has a strong sense of who they are, has a strong sense of spirituality and/or faith, and who also strives to create a safe environment to share. I'm looking for someone who is as comfortable going to a stage show, or concert, as kicking back at a baseball game (I'm not big into sports though); someone who is as comfortable hiking up a dormant volcano as snuggling together watching a movie. I also believe that it's not so important that I, and the person I'm with, have all of the same interests (in fact it would be boring if we did!). It's just important that we appreciate and respect each other for who we are. The most important things in a relationship, to me, are honesty, trust, great communication skills (of which listening and understanding are a huge part), a willingness to try new things, and an ability to laugh at ourselves and our humanness.
