Date a soulmate from Felton, United States. I had a rather normal upbringing: Father, an attorney; Mother, a school teacher; one brother, from another planet. At 18, I had a life-changing experience from bumming around the world alone for six months when fresh out of high school. College years in San Francisco, with a year abroad in Vienna; MA in English, and taught English at the University of Hawaii -- mainly poetry from a higher consciousness perspective. Left teaching to write. Before coming to Santa Cruz mountains, lived in Mt. Shasta where I had a number of spiritual experiences that imbued through the veil to influence the direction in my writing. I also enjoy reading the tea-leaves in dreamwork, which has been a wonderful spiritual tool for me. I love living in the Santa Cruz area, where I enjoy the ocean, mountains, hiking, tennis, Tahoe snow skiing, movies, dancing, dining out, festivals, and good conversation. I am in a dream-analysis group, a spiritually-oriented group, sea-kayak club, tennis club, and an investment group. I am both an introvert and an extrovert with a zest for both. I enjoy attuning to the ocean's sensuous rise and fall while in my 17-ft sea kayak. It's the meditation of it that I'm into the most: to feel so comfortable and relaxed on the water, with my chi-center near the breathing of the ocean, while gliding easily through the teeming seascape all around me. ...Not a prerequisite, but how wonderful to share such a marvel with someone special!My dream partner would be an attractive (in her own way), feminine, and inspiring woman with few flowers missing in her bouquet (remember...this IS a fantasy). She would have mostly resolved the inevitable wounds from childhood and past relationships. Natively, she would abide in both wisdom and sensuality, though in spirit she would be vivacious, joyful and radiant, and possess about her a certain savoir faire. Having a passionate nature, she, too, would be seeking more magic in the moonlight, for she would know that to be the blessing of a great relationship.
