I enjoy surprises & spontaneity...anything unconventional. For second dates & beyond I enjoy dressing down in jeans & a t-shirt to go to a movie; dressing up in heels & a dress to attend a play; catching the sunrise & sunset - just because; hiking in the mountains exploring new trails; walking barefoot on the beach & breathing in the salty air; racing bareback on horses thru an open field; strolling hand-in-hand in the city with no particular destination; intelligent conversations about world events.

God must be the center of our lives & our love. Without Him a relationship is doomed before it has begun. Any love worth having requires work & flexibility. That in a man, I require honesty, integrity, humor & the ability to laugh at oneself, a kindness and warmth that attracts little children & old ladies, unselfishness, sincerity, & a sure self-confidence - the sexiest traits a guy can have.

It means knowing the truth & understanding the bible accurately. Knowing that there is a special message to give to those you encounter in daily life. I went to Adventist schools only part of my education & thus have been blessed by having numerous opportunities to share the nuances of bible texts & truths with those of other faiths.
It means having a huge family of friends...all over the world. In my experience at Sabbath School, church potlucks, Camp Meetings, Pathfinder camporees, Nosoca Pines Ranch, Mt. Pisgah, Andrews Univ., & Loma Linda I found there was love and friendship everywhere - always groups of people with whom I knew I could develop life long relationships.

To have grown spiritually; developed new friendships; mended some old friendships; found love; married the one worthy of my love; have a child on the way; explored new hobbies; get my art into some galleries; have a pasture full of horses; maintained a thriving business; -all the while having had lived passionately.

Matthew 28:20...and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.
We have Him with us every breathing moment of the day....incredible!

I'm 5 years out of school & my hard work & commitment is paying off-I'm feeling both financially and professionally grounded. I'm excited about life & what the future holds & want enjoy more meaningful relationships.
