PS: Listen to the acoustic version of "Life is beautiful" by Sixx:Am)...close your eyes and enjoy...

PSS: I don't accept IMs OR voice mails:)

PSSS: Not single / Not looking simply means that I am not currently looking for anything or anyone at the moment, although I am single;)

Hmm...it's not easy to describe ourselves in a nutshell is it...specially when one doesn't seem to fit in any categories in particular, but
here goes.

My interests often seem quite boring to others. I consider myself a news junkie, although I am trying my best to wean myself from that addiction.

I enjoy having a good discussion on a wide variety of topics such as religions, politics and current affairs, and I love "peeking" behind the
curtain and see what's there.

I love camping and I have my own little trailer parked on a beautiful lake...no hydro = heaven. I enjoy having a coffee and a cigarette while looking at the most incredible sunsets...life just doesn't get much better than that I swear.

My idea of a good evening is staying at home and lighting all my candles. I like to just sit there and listen to music while I ponder the mysteries of the universe...lol!

I still find it hard to conform to what's expected of me.

I guess I'm really just an old hippy at heart. I love humanity, kindness, peace, tranquility, quiet. I feel very connected to my fellow human beings, and I care and feel deeply for all of us. It causes me great sorrow to see all the harm we do to each other.

At this point, I guess I should mention that after a very long and soulful journey, I identify myself as an atheist. I'm also a secular humanist and somewhat of an anti-theist.

As an atheist and an anti-theist, I not only lack a belief in any gods or deities, but I also believe that most, not all, but most organized religions have done more harm to humanity than good.

This is a huge part of who I am, and for which I am very passionate about....so if you believe in the god of the bible, then we're probably
not a good match.

And if you equate having good morals and strong values with being religious, well then we're obviously not on the same page at all.

Having said all that, I am still struggling to find out who I am and what is my purpose. I am still trying to figure out what it all means, and how it all connects together, and where the hell I fit in all of this.

I'm still trying to find a way to fill the void I feel inside... the hole I have in my heart, and the hopelessness I feel when I see all the hatred and ugliness that we human beings are capable of:(

As you can see, I'm not exactly what you would call a dream date...hence why I gave up dating...at least for now.

I don't really like going out in the traditional sense of the word, and I don't enjoy going to the movies or to clubs...and I hate HATE doing the "polite small talk" thing...ack! lol!!

I hardly ever watch TV and I have absolutely zero interest in sports...none whatsoever...zilch...nada.

I have no need or desire for expensive restaurants or fancy affairs. I'm seriously done with all that, it's just not for me. I guess I'm the exception to the rule and I just don't clean up that nice...haha!

I'd rather broil or BBQ my own lobster (yum) at home or at my trailer (even better!) where it's okay to have butter dripping from your fingers and smeared all over your face...yeah!

I just love having no plans with nothing to do, which means that you are free to do anything you like, which includes sitting on the deck of your trailer all day watching people and life go by.....doing exactly nothing but enjoying the beauty of that day, the sound of the wind through the trees, and knowing that after a yummy meal cooked on the grill, you still have a whole evening ahead of you with nothing to do...except sitting around the campfire, lighting up the candles and looking at the moon and the stars....pure heaven on earth.

I am very much of a loner and love my solitude, yet at the same time I crave the company of people.

It often seems I'm a walking contradiction.

Oh...and my 14 years old grand-daughter lives with me:)

Anyway, this is all I'm saying about me for now. (once started it does become easy doesn't it:)


UPDATE (14/03/07)

When I say that I love humanity, it means that I love ALL of humanity, no exceptions.

So if you have any racist bones in your body, which includes the ones who say "I'm not racist BUT"...please don't contact me.

If you are homophobic, which includes the ones who say "I have nothing against THEM as long as they stay away from me"...again, please don't contact me.

If you feel no empathy and compassion towards the WHOLE human race, we have NOTHING in common...seriously.




And please, I don't need nor want to be "saved"




Happy to all!

Well since I'm not dating at the moment, I won't fill this out...except perhaps to use this space to put down some of my favorites quotes by some of my favorite people.


"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself."

~Friedrich Nietzsche~



"It ain't the parts of the Bible that I can't understand that bother me, it is the parts that I do understand."

~Mark Twain~



"Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense."

~Chapman Cohen~



"In Christianity neither morality nor religion come into contact with reality at any point."

~Friedrich Nietzsche~



"If man had created man he would be ashamed of his performance."

~Mark Twain~



"When we remember we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands."

~Mark Twain~



"I feel the void. I attribute it to the belief that I came from the void. All things come from the void and all things return to the void. In emptiness lies the potential for all things. I sometimes feel lonely in the void because I can't see anything else, and I sometimes feel crowded in the void because I see everything except me. Usually though, I feel at peace in the void because I am home."

~Stonestongue~



"The opposite of the religious fanatic is not the fanatical atheist but the gentle cynic who cares not whether there is a god or not."

~Eric Hoffer~


Love and peace
