| | I am a person who takes a lot of joy from everyday life. I am moved by the beauty of nature, even something simple like morning sunlight. I enjoy other types of beauty, too, such as the arts or even the beauty of human acts, such as those that are kind, courageous or wise. I am an avid walker and am looking forward to the Big Sur 21-miler in the spring (whether I finish or not!). I also stay fit with step aerobics, weights, yoga and my new favorite, ZUMBA! Aside from all this fitness, I am an expert at the art of relaxation and think self-indulgence is a worthy value. I enjoy travel and some of my favorite destinations have been the Grand Canyon (which I have hiked twice), Italy and Hawaii. I love visiting the beach each summer, where a lounge chair and a good book under an umbrella are basics necessities. I enjoy quiet solitude and also love people. To me, there is nothing like a lively discussion about how to solve the world's problems, the news of the day, what's going on in our lives or just laughing at the humor in life. Whether I'm enjoying a glass of wine, a good cup of coffee, an intriguing activity or the company of friends or family, the important thing to me is to enjoy life to the fullest. What I am looking for in a partner is summarized in my title: someone with a sense of humor, sense of wonder and joy in living. |
