I love the simple things in life, a sports enthusiast of all varieties,a good movie, music or a book to read keep me happy. I've spent my career in various sales and sales management positions all over the US, my strengths are having an inate ability to understand what makes people "tick", what motivates them to be the best they can be. I'm a very positive, optimistic person, believe in harmony, can be a good arranger when necessary and like to be included in any type of social function. Give me a mic and a stage and I am very comfortable in front of a large group or one on one. I like most types of music, probably am a closet "Parrot Head" but from rock to country and blues, I will listen to anything but rap.

I realize at this age that the women that I would love to have the chance to meet and possibly get to know do have families, grandchildren and responsibilites to their jobs as well as other things and am very understanding and supportive of this. While I don't have any immediate family living close, I respect the needs that you have in this area. I know the importance of having "balance" in our lives, our faith, our families and our own emotional wellbeing and if we can experience that, then our lives will be full. Someone shared with me their philosophy of life and I thought it made good sense. "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and live every day to it's fullest." That is how I am living my life and it seems to be working out ok. If you are of the same feeling then possibly we could have the chance to meet and see where life takes us.

I understand the world we live in and at my age, feel that most women are more comfortable with a first face-to-face meeting where each party is in complete control of the situation. A cup of coffee, a glass of wine or even a casual dinner where both parties have the chance to spend plenty of time just talking and finding out about each other and if there is any real commonality.If this first meeting is good, then possibly a second "date" to see where things lead from there.
