Date women from United States / California / Ridgecrest, 51 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. I am an intelligent 51 year old woman looking for another man to share her life with. I'm hoping to find someone who wants to share his life with me. I'm not possessive or jealous; however, I do require some attention, even if it is a funny text message periodically. I am a relatively independent (and possibly stubborn) woman, but can be loving and devoted to the right person. I need someone who looks at life realistically, but doesn't dwell on the negative. Happiness is something we create with what we have, not something we hope for from things we don't. I'm not looking for perfection. Heaven knows, I am not even close, but I'm looking for a few important attributes: Loyalty, sense of humor, values physical well-being, likes to travel, likes to communicate, fun, loving.
After 26 years of marriage and 5 children, I don't come without baggage, but I want to keep the effect on my friends to a minimum. Just need emotional support, not someone to "fix it" for me.
I believe in God and expect my "partner" to believe in a higher power. I'm not sure that people could be civilized if we didn't think there was "something" to answer to in an afterlife. I try to keep an open mind on most things, but enjoy a good debate sometimes.
