Date men and women from United States / California / San Anselmo, 64 year old

Date a soulmate from California, United States. So as I am writing my profile here I realize that I am also starting to write the next chapter of my life. Hmmmm. What is the title of this chapter? I'm not sure where to begin.
OK, let's start with the facts. I have just retired from a very rewarding profession. The work was wonderful but I was working 40 hours a week (or more) in a large bureaucracy. About as big as you can get. My job involved a lot of commuting as well so I often stayed in the areas I was working. My career plus commute was pretty consuming.
Now I am back in Marin county full-time and have many interests so I am hiking, reading, going to movies, and making plans to work part-time locally or to get a temporary job.Will also do some volunteer work. Many of my hikes have been with some great Meetup groups. I have joined a couple of book groups and am a member of the California Film Institute and, of a course, a gym.
While there are many opportunities to meet people---and I easily meet and interact with many people---I find that I miss a steady companion. There is a lot to be said for what becomes a shared history and shared knowledge of another's inner world that grows from good communication, time and trust.
I look forward to sharing emotions, intellect, caring and general fun and enjoyment. Mutual laughter is wonderful and I would hope we both can see the humor in life---and understand each other's tender spots. Humor can sometimes touch those.
Another major ingredient in my life, and I hope yours, is the ongoing wonder of curiosity plus having the desire to remain open to change and to let in new ideas of how to be and how to interact in the world.
I love nature, human nature (and learning more about it), and having senses filled with music, art, and sometimes just the wonderful fresh air of life. Solitude and reflection in all of this can be a boon but being able to balance this by having a loving partner by my side is my current goal.

Date men and women from California, United States. Responding to the pull to follow what intrigues me provides great joy. I can be intensely focused but also love periods of unstructured time. Positive and optimistic, I find the world, the streets, and the people populating them welcoming and fun. Travel has always been important to me. My job as a flight attendant for 14 years provided access to diverse cultures and beautiful and interesting places.
Most recently I finished my Ph.D. in psychology. I was intensely focused. Thank God I have a fully automatic espresso maker, which saved me time while researching and writing my dissertation. My friends have been really supportive meeting me for coffee, lunches, dinners, visits, etc. I would now love to have coffee and spend time in the company of a sweet and interesting man.
Also important to me now in this challenging and complex time is exploring ways to bring into the world what I learned.
My ideal date would feel like he has a full life with the exception of a good partner. What I appreciate in a man is a sense of humor, especially a capacity for vulnerability that allows him to laugh at himself. I donРІР‚в„ўt have children but I get such a kick out of them and love spending time with them so I would be really happy if you had them. I imagine a guy walking in the door after participating in some sport or event that he enjoys and cooking a dinner together. Joining us, at times, will be old and new friends and of course family in all its crazy complexity.
I expect to learn from this man. I would also hope that professionally he fulfills his definition of success. Working toward emotional wisdom is really important to me.
I love art, architecture, and design. It would be a plus if we could share some of those interests.
