In His Own Words
About him
I enjoy the beauty of nature, walking, jogging, gardening, meeting up with my two children, meditation, listening to music, home improvements, website design.
I'm in good health on all levels - mental, emotional and physical. All chakras fairly well balanced. Plenty of prana in the manipura, waiting to energise my anahata when you and I find each other.
I am basically Christian, but still exploring, and longing to be where I belong, suspecting that I have been there all along.
Studied biology at Uni. 4 years in water treatment, 2 years as a volunteer, then married. Worked in energy management. Developed a residential lettings business, and in 1999 gave up my regular job to do the house repairs, and help with our children. Happily married for 44 years. Our lives together were delightful, so I know what's possible, but I know that it cannot be re-created now.
I enjoy the comfort of home and garden, prefer local local trips to long drives, prefer small social groups rather than parties, happier with short holidays that don't require extensive travelling.
I continue to manage the houses I let; I enjoy using my house-maintenance skills, and I like direct communication with my tenants, most of whom have stayed for years. Much of the work is flexible in timing, so I will have time for you!
Will our match light a fire?
Am I the man you desire?
Alike we might not be,
but yin and yang maybe;
Ignore the algorithm,
and feel your heart's rhythm.
We need the fire to glow,
and then I hope we'll know.
And will its light guide us,
kindle love inside us?
Our love is for giving,
patient and forgiving.
About his ideal match
You will have your circle of friends and relations, activities you like to do; I have mine; let us see what activities we want to do together, and find pleasure in sharing.
I hope that you will share my wish to help our Mother, Gaia, because she is having a difficult time at the moment. I am looking for someone who is concerned about preserving our natural life-support system in the outer world, and aware of the life-support system we have in the inner world of the soul.
I'm no idealist,
so no 'ideal' list;
just some idea,
for you, my dear.
I hope that we can meet,
and feel how our hearts beat,
sensing the resonance
in each others presence,
beating in synchrony,
pulsating in harmony,
an impulse in you and me,
will create 'us' and 'we'.
Breathing inspiration
from our participation.
Let us make our two hearts,
more than the sum of parts,
and find that me + you
adds up to more than 2.
A friendship that's bracing,
with mutual embracing,
and tightly we will hold,
as both of us grow old.
This stance we can agree:
that you will stand by me,
and I will stand by you;
our understanding true.
Like me, you want a friend,
so, write message, then 'send'.
Just now, single, you are;
we are all singular;
you too are unique,
and it's you I seek.
Let's try companionship,
embark on a 'friend' ship,
and hope we do not sink,
but we do stay in sync;
neither falling overboard,
nor becoming over-bored.
A journey maritime,
but not to marry time.
Like the Ship of Theseus,
we'll change, but still be 'us'.
