I am a practical person yet am known to be frivolous at times. firmly I believe in the reflection of oneself, in every aspect, from each individual interaction ... I pride myself on the ability to step aside of my thought and emotion to see what lay outside my initial perception my inner circle & I all share, what I consider to be, the basic fundamentals for an intimate relationship.. to name a few in no particular order: spiritual (reverence for The Almighty),loyal (faithful in our commitments), trustworthy (deserving of each others confidence),honest (sincerely fair, upright in our frankness). just the above four permit us to fulfill our obligation of constructive redirection, sometime we all can use some rebuking, to promote cultivation (nurturing refinement) of mastering thy self which leads to my underlying drive each day, which is movement towards the pious and virtuous woman I have been created to be (AKA ascetic, hermit, or fanatic of Christ; blessed to have these words associated to me by the self-indulgent) My faith is first in my life and maturing in it is a huge priority for me; I desire a partner whom shares this. An ideal mate would be of compliment to my nature; I do not believe in the 'complete me' concept (that's co-dependency). My daily life can be presented with much occupational stress so I enjoy the company of a lighthearted man; a sensible jokester. My natural outlet is writing and I value quiet moments of relaxation.
