I would describe myself as deeply grounded and compassionate with a healthy ego. I value genuine connections with people and am inspired by those who have the temerity to be themselves, exercise discipline in their lives and really work for what they want. I am generally idealistic and optimistic. I feel that if we are created in the eyes of a deity, how dare we not live our lives by that distinction? I'm looking for someone that knows his strength, understands self-worth and isn't afraid to show it. Friendship, health and communication skills are also really important to me. I'm a big kidder too...not facetious, though.
