- About Me:

I am an energetic 44 year old. I've never been married and have no children. I can be a very exciting and adventurous entrepreneur (E commerce; and commercial installations) and also a kind of stiff, that loves to just focus on something and get good at it. I'm really into physics right now (for the inspiration). I love music, and more traditional things: classical music, flamenco guitar, folk music (I have been lightly studying Russian and German for more than a few years). I LOVE piano (though I don't play it, I am dying to learn), and opera. I also like pop music and I am crazy about audio books. I enjoy learning German and about German culture. I also enjoy ballet and tap dancing, though I haven't practiced for a while (I was a trained flamenco guitarist as a teenager; as well as martial artist). I love the church: the ideals, the discipline, the aspiration to overcome all things worldly by engaging them with a "contrite spirit" and wholesome way of life. I want to get married and have a family, it really means a lot me; I'm in my forties the instincts are taking over and it's starting to hurt (if that makes any sense). I am very much into my business and work with specific goals and self challenges that I work every day to live up to (I am the textbook workaholic and I love it). My dating life has been very quiet and uneventful for a number of reasons (most of which had to do with not being surrounded by the right people). Since I've joined the church I have a new hope and faith in the prospect of marriage and family. Having conviction in that, I believe, is the first step in the right direction. I can go from having a runners body to having a few extra pounds back to a average body; and then to a fit phsyique but I always seem to not notice until I find myself hitting the elliptical with everything I've got then I look in the mirror to see what's happened the past few months. I like going out to eat, and to get to know people. At this phase I can and do abstain from things like coffee, tea, adderal, or testosterone: specifically because I believe that the right environment and subsequent "mind set" is far more powerful. Though I can understand and respect others who do those things.

Well, first and foremost someone with strong values and ideals; church going or can be: someone who is honest and truthful with others, who doesn't hold back and who doesn't have a problem communicating how they feel or what is on their mind. In my world things happen becasue of relationship not because of values (what happens between A and B; not what's inside A or B). I especially prefer someone who is of a "bigger vision" who starts and ends on a good note and who speaks to be understood not to control. Someone with an education might do well, since I have an MBA and may be pusuing another degree in Physics; but I'm also a big advocate of home study and scholarship. I prefer a woman who isn't afraid to engage life fully with work, school, and the demands of life the more I think I'll root her on: I can also be a advocate of traditional relationships, it depends "nothing toxic, weird, or fear inducing". I love being up close and personal but not as smoochy as I coudl be I guess. I thrive on being known and reassured that self confidence is somethign that only I can understand when it involves me. In some ways I LOVE being smothered and assumed on (trusted): as long as its without a need to control or intended to limit what I do or think. Money for me can be larger than life, or I can fall to boot strap sprints to get to the next hill (it comes in waves: I can go from rich to poor several times a month like a good day trader; though things are changing as my long term project is culminating on a high note). That said, I can come off as "super rich" and also "in a rat race on his last dollar" (neither of which are really true but it can seem like that sometimes): so someone who has a strong sense of the granary mindset (firm grip on reality) but also knows how to ride a wave in (if you know what I mean, ambitious visionary). Some of my ambitions include owning a yacht (Santa Maria, or Amels150). I'm also praying for a happy marriage, happy family, and a happy home (In many ways those take precedence over all else at this time in my life in terms of what will happen in the following months and years).

I like the way it gets right to the heart of the modern human condition and applies the teachings of Christ in such a way as to make it very difficult to miss the point. In particular, I believe the ordinances and encouragement to fully engage a Christ like life; is a gift and chance that we would have a very difficult time finding any where else. My favorite scripture this week is Alma 31
