About Me:
I prefer sunshine on my face when I get up in the mornings and misty rain when I want to take long strolls alone...I will always choose laughter over tears but I've been known to cry at stupid sappy movies. I like to play an active role in life- you can say I'm quite the busy-body. Time means a lot to me- I don't like to waste it! Love means even more to me- I don't like to waste that either...Trust and Friendship are the keys to my happiness. Family means the world to me. I am loyal and giving in nature and I won't apologize for that. But I am also stubborn as a mule. I trust but once it gets broken- well...
I am quite the social butterfly and a natural born networker. I love meeting interesting people and am not shy about saying "hello" to strangers. I need my autonomy and am extremely independent as an individual. I like knowing that I can stand on my own two feet, no matter what life presents to me but enjoy having companionship very much. My private/alone time is sacred and those moments always help to ground me when I'm feeling overwhelmed.
My passion is writing- mostly poetry and short essays. I enjoy bookstores and coffee shops- perhaps too much. I love museums and things that stimulate my mind- keep me guessing or challenge my point of view. I am an explorer at heart and love, love, love to travel and experience/learn new things. I enjoy getting postcards from my friends when they travel throughout the world- living vicariously I guess. I couldn't live without music and I am interested in theatre and the performing arts. I love entertaining and cooking for my family and friends. Cozy and intimate always wins over loud and crazy surroundings- although every once in a while I need to be out there on the dance floor! I try never to take things like family, friendships and love for granted! I do my best to hold on to people and things which make me feel wonderful and alive...I'm not good at "goodbyes".

Who I Want to Meet:
Anyone who will simply let me be just the way I am. Open-minded, cultured, non-judgemental, witty, free-spirited, down-to-earth, upfront and communicates well, loyal, brave, patient, kind, supportive, caring and giving to others...a great listener and a trusting friend. Someone who can sit with me in complete and comfortable silence.
Sense of Humor is HUGE in my book along with Trust and Honesty. Anyone I can joke and laugh with...Optimistic about the world around them but sensitive & secure enough to understand/accept when life doesn't go according to plan!!! In other words, someone with a strong heart who can handle one such as mine.
Open to new experiences and will try something different at least once.
