I live in a pretty little town with big, amazing red rocks and (usually) blue skies. I love beauty and nature. I just moved back to Sedona after a year and a half in Costa RIca where I took some time out following a very amicable divorce and the death of my mother. I am into metaphysics in a big way and it will not be good to attempt a get-together if you have a problem with that. I am not ego-driven and I don't care for drama. On the other hand, I do stand for fair play and honesty. Truth is a fundamental building-block for integrity. I may not agree with someone, but I will always respect them if they are speaking their truth. I am looking for someone from my "tribe." That would be someone who is imaginative, creative, confident and easy-going. I like people who have a mind and aren't afraid to use it. "Know thyself" is more than a slogan, it's a path. I seek a person who has the courage to be introspective and the intelligence to self-evolve.

My goal is to truly enjoy each day. Life is what we perceive and thus, make it. I can be very sociable and outgoing, but occasionally need to be a recluse. When I'm in my hermit mode, I like to read, listen to and watch things about ancient cultures and scientific discoveries. Sometimes I wonder if I am a human storage bank for arcane facts. I have been an artist all my life and am currently working with oil paintings.

I am pretty independent and I work from my home. I used to be the lead multimedia designer for Roadrunner (AOL/TimeWarner) and had a spiritual awakening that turned my life around and caused me to move away from Northern Virginia to Sedona. I like to cook (used to belong to the gourmet cooking club in my upscale N. Va. neighborhood), have close friends and enjoy entertaining. I had the ideal life, on the surface, in Virginia: a 4,500 square foot new brick colonial in an acre lot subdivision in Fairfax County; a high-profile job that was very cool; went to conferences and promotions; and basically, ate the cream off the dot com pie. However, I discovered that these things were not what truly made me happy. Just because I'm on a dating site doesn't mean I'm desperate or sleezy. I live in a very small town and I'd like to broaden my scope to hopefully find a special man that thinks with his heart as well as his brain. Someone who just "gets me" and wants to share kindness, interests, sorrows and joys without "crazy." I may be into woo-woo stuff, but I'm rational and sane.

I'm looking for someone who is comfortable in their own skin and takes time getting to know me. I am looking for a person with manners and common decency. I was married to a very good person and we simply decided to take different courses. I haven't dated anyone seriously since. I am not insecure and troubled, don't need a saviour and don't want to be one to someone either. I am rather intelligent and am not a shrinking violet, so if that is a problem, please pass on me. I am not looking for casual sex or partying. I don't drink (but you can, in moderation.) I am not a big believer in selflessness. I am generous and kind, but also take care of my mind, body and soul and expect you to do the same. I run 4+ miles at least 3 days a week, do steam saunas, frequent detoxes, cleanses and eat organic. Being healthy is big for me since I plan on living 900+ years.

I WON'T CHAT ABOUT SEX. I FIND IT BORING AND A WASTE OF BRAIN CELLS.

Also, if you are a woman, I'd love to meet some new friends to go out with and hang. I'm newly back in town and my old friends moved since my break. My current women friends are married and I have been forcing myself to go out alone, which isn't that much fun.

Tea, lunch, dinner... Preferably on the healthy side. Somewhere public and safe. Hint: I love pool/billiards in a nice place.
