"THERE'S A NEW WIND BLOWING LIKE I'VE NEVER KNOWN, I'M BREATHIN DEEPER THAN I'VE EVER DONE, AND IT SURE FEELS GOOD TO FINALLY FEEL THE WAY I DO.....I'M LETTIN NO ONE FAULT MY LONELY YESTERDAYS, I'VE FORGIVEN MYSELF FOR THE MISTAKES I'VE MADE......I USED TO RUN IN CIRCLES GOIN NOWHERE FAST, I'D TAKE ONE STEP FORWARD AND TWO STEPS BACK, I COULDN'T WALK A STRAIGHT LINE EVEN IF I WANTED TO....I WANNA FEEL THE SUNSHINE, SHININ DOWN ON ME AND YOU"

I AM STILL SEEKING THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE. AS WITH MOST, I REFUSE TO SETTLE. LETS FACE IT, DATING AT THIS AGE IS NOT THE EASIEST THING. BUT I DO BELIEVE PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE.

THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY OR MAKE ME SMILE ARE: MY KIDS, MY SISTERS, GOOD FRIENDS, FIRST CUP OF COFFEE IN THE MORNING, WORKING OUT, THE SQUIRRELS IN MY FRONT YARD, HOT SUMMER DAYS, COOL SUMMER NIGHTS, A GREAT SALAD, ANYTHING ITALIAN, MY VEGATABLE GARDEN, M & M's, CANOLI'S, SMILES, NICE EYES, ANY SONG BY KEITH URBAN, MOST SONGS BY KENNY CHESNEY, ANYTHING TO DO WITH SHANIA TWAIN, AND A WOMAN THAT CAN MAKE ME LAUGH.

THINGS THAT I'M NOT SO CRAZY ABOUT: FAST FOOD (ESPECIALLY MCDONALDS), GREED, IGNORANT PEOPLE, THE WAR IN IRAQ, MOST POLITICIANS, 99.9% OF LAWYERS, COLD, SNOW, AND CLOUDY WINDY DAYS.

TWO THINGS I MAKE TIME FOR NO MATTER WHAT.....PRAYER AND EXERCISE.

I AM A POSITIVE PERSON, BUT AM ALSO REALISTIC. I HAVE NO TOLERANCE FOR NEGATIVITY. GLOOM AND DOOM JUST ISN'T MY THING. I ALWAYS BELIEVE NO MATTER HOW BAD THINGS ARE TODAY, THEY NEVER LOOK QUITE SO BAD THE NEXT MORNING. THE SUN WILL STILL RISE IN THE EAST AND SET IN THE WEST.

I'M VERY FRIENDLY, GENUINE, AND 100% GENTLEMAN. I'M A BIT SHY AT FIRST, BUT I WARM UP QUICKLY. I HAVE ZERO INTEREST IN NON-TRUSTING CONTROL FREAKS. THERE IS NO WAY A RELATIONSHIP CAN LAST WITH EITHER OF THOSE TWO INGRIDIENTS. I AM NOT A SERIAL DATER, AND YOU SHOULDN'T BE EITHER. I DO NOT DATE JUST TO DATE. INTERNET TO START, THEN THE PHONE, AND IF WE BOTH AGREE, A DATE. HOPEFULLY IT WILL GO WELL, BUT IF NOT I WILL WISH YOU THE BEST IN YOUR FUTURE FISHING, AND HOPEFULLY YOU WILL WISH ME THE SAME. WORSE CASE SCENARIO, WE BOTH MADE A NEW FRIEND, WOULDN'T YOU AGREE?

A nice first date would be meeting at an outdoor cafe for drinks, and just getting to know a little about each other. (Of course, not during winter)
