Date single man from California, United States. Passion, yes PASSION! if you live your life with passion then you're my cup of tea or coffee or a good smoothie! My passions are my art and my new career. I paint in oils, sculpt and photography. My past passions were ensuring my children became good people and thus far I feel I've been successful; I'd be proud to introduce them to anyone. I'm attempting to turn to a new entrepreneurial career, a career developing multiple streams of income which will allow my business partner and myself to aid family and friends. We will also give back to the community through charitible contributions. My interests include camping, fishing, travelling the coastline north and south for inspiration for my art, but I don't have the special someone to share all that I see, hear and feel. After not having a life partner, for the last 10 or so years, I've come to realize how empty success can be by not having someone special with which to share the journey, so here I am! Attached with my photos are some of my paintings and photos, the photo of 4 are my kids and I'll put them up against anyone. I hope you enjoy them!
Why do we put ourselves through this? This sounds a little like the questions presented at a beauty contest!!
I've loved much and often; have had older lovers when I was younger and younger lovers as I grew older; I've learned much from all.
If you really want to know what I'm like read 2 books: Cowboy Ethics and Cowboy Values; they're current and are needed in times like this. I'm not a cowboy but you don't have to be to appreciate their valuable lessons. I live by them as best as I'm able.
I'd like someone like me but different. Someone with spirit who hasn't allowed their soul to lay down waiting for death. Also with all the cockamamy things most of us put into our introductions, and don't be afraid to reach out, if there is rejection who cares this is all so anonymous (or as I used to say...anymouse) anyway.
I WANT PASSION for ALL that is important OK...............
And ladies just because someone looks "different" does not mean they speak with an accent or their social skills are lacking or they lack a sense of humor or they are sooo different than you. My caucasian friends told me to get on this site because I'm as caucasian as they are as people would realize once "they" got to know me, afterall my parents raised us to assimilate into this society so we would be more accepted. My voice is considered deep and raspy with words of honesty.
My paintings: #1 w/figure 8, you'd have to be a fan of Salvador Dali; #2 w/the jetty, titled Yin and Yang; #3 where I'm fishing, titled Oblivious to Oblivion; #4 w/craggy face, titled Lookin' North.
Now I've entered the photography arena as an entreprenuer, may see me at the local artwalks or OC swap meet selling my wares
As I've said in an email sent to one who I thought might be opened minded and did not respond after I had sent it "at least be honest enough to respond and say you'd rather dive into the shallow end of the dating pool!" perhaps I was a "bit caustic", but be courteous and answer when one is courageous enough to reach out.
I paint mostly seascapes, I write poetry, I've overhauled the engine and installed the transmission in my '66 chevelle wagon, I take brisk morning walks and ride my bicycle, I rode english motorcycles in the late '60s and early '70s, I plan on buying a Harley come fall/winter (the price goes down then) because I've seen a lot of and I want to see the rest of the good ole USA, the greatest country in the world. Hope I haven't bored you.
The heart wants what the heart wants! I hope I've been able to teach and learn when making love! I've learned to pleasure before seeking my own, always important. Thank you to all that I have learned pleasure and hope I have been able to reciprocate as learned and taught!
My love to you all, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, AND PLEASE BE GOOD TO EACH OTHER...REMEMBER THE GOLDEN RULE!
Meet a soulmate from California, United States. I enjoy living in the moment. I am intelligent and very active. I just completed a solo ride across the US on my motorcyle. I flew for the Navy for 20 years and have retained the need for adventure. I enjoy doing business and making deals. I like sensual dating and sensual relationships through food, conversation, knowledge expansion and passion. I am a successful businessman. I live two blocks from the beach because that is where my body and soul feel comfortable.
Date someone special from California, United States. Most people I meet think I look and act younger than my age (I suppose you've heard that before, the proof is in the ?). I am still up for life's great adventure.
I have been campaigning my Cal 25 (a 25' sail boat), "Quiet Woman" (I don't always like women to be quiet) in the Local Fleet V and club races for the last 3 years. I am now ready to take a break from racing to enjoy other activities. I have been used to traveling more than the racing would allow.
I am way over educated, have lived and was educated (according to the diplomas) abroad as well as in a number of cities and institutions stateside. I enjoy many sophisticated endeavors as well as the simple things in life (simple things does not include the company simple people unless they are quite kind and caring as well ("avoid the company of boring people unless you are in need of sleep")). Oh, and I might as well get this out there, I am a proud member of the Trojan Family (USC). I do, however recognize that there are other worthwhile educational institutions on earth, unlike some of my brothers and sisters. I enjoy music (music does not include pop country-western or rap), theater, film (particularly independent film), and literature, as well as traveling. Some music may, from time to time, inspire me to dance, usually, not alone. I also enjoy dining, wine, spirits and I also cook.
I spent the last 20 or so years of professional life as "a student of the built environment" (real estate in the broadest sense). Fortunately, the student was able to derive enough income from the studies to live comfortably if not luxuriously and retire early to enjoy the freedom associated therewith.
I have traveled most of Europe and some of the more common tourist destinations on this side of the Atlantic. Most of the traveling was done solo. I've been fortunate to meet people along the way to spend time with to enjoy the traveling. I find the experience of "embracing the culture" when in foreign lands, exhilarating. Culture includes the food and drink, art, customs and the rhythms of life.
I have a small bungalow on the poor side of Naples (the North side of 2nd Street)which is a life project in progress, but is none the less, also comfortable, at least for me.
I have one grownup daughter and three grandkids who's company I am happy to enjoy as often as possible. She lives an hour and one half away.
Does any of that sound like a match? I am a firm believer that good matches are based on friendship, common goals and life values.
Meet a man from California, United States. I am very simple by nature. I am amused by smallt hings. I love natural occurances. natural conversation, natural food, natural music and nature itself. I have a very strong passion for all the arts. Art is the expression of life to me in the most beautiful way. It is interesting to discuss the arts as well. I like women that are natural looking with our without a little make up. I love a woman that can dress sown as well as up but not too fashion conscious. I am a private person so not too encouraging to have alot of friends coming over or hanging out. I like spending time alone but would love some one that could handle a quiet atmosphere. Going at to diner on occassion to a gourmet restaurant is very enjoyable to me and sharing that experience hightens the end results. I love dramatic movies with complicated plots. I would enjoy going to a few Philharmic concerts. I would love to visit Africa on a regular bases. I am not oppose to starting a family but not a must. love positive people and avoid people with any kind of negativity. I love young people and watching them grow. I love watching families having a good time. I am an observer many times. I am quiet most of the time but can be very opionated.
Date single man from United States. Would you think me forward if I ask you out for a glass of wine already?! Well, you have come this far? (LOL) If not, then a little more about me to entice you. The life that I have lead has taught me that even though I love to travel, be with family and friends, tend to the homestead, all these activities are just a bit sweeter when I have someone with whom to share them. I was born and raised in Long Beach. I am the only boy out of three siblings and still very close to them even though they live a distance away. When not with family, I can always be found tending and improving the "Jewel of the Neighborhood", my home. Next thing that keeps me on the straight and narrow is the theater and concerts. The next concert I will attend is by the sea in Long Beach. So, sounds good so far? I hope it does. This is just a sample of what I am about. If any of the above activities sounds appealing I have a spare seat at the concert by the beach or in the boat for you. Just need to know what wine is you prefer?!I would like someone who enjoys life. An optomist. A glass half full type of woman. Someone who knows when to pick her battles. She chooses to be a good sport. The perfect lady would love to travel. She also is the girl next door that I have always dreamed about. I am very easy to please and get along with others well. Well, hope to hear from you! I think it is real easy to find this lady. I hope you are this lady! If not, I hope you find happiness like we are all seeking.
