I always freeze when I get to this part. : ) It's like writing that dreaded essay for English class in high school - tough to get started, but not so bad once you get going. Just don't grade me on this. Here is a glimpse of the person that I am. I have been told I am funny (I have a gift for making people laugh) and people seem to feel comfortable around me. I am a musician and try to use the talents that God has given me in a positive way. I enjoy being creative. I love children and for seven years was mother to a very special little boy who had many challenging needs. My son passed away suddenly in a few years ago. I am forever changed by that experience and feel that it has very much shaped the person who I am today and the person I am evolving into. I am thankful that God chose me for this purpose. Being his mother was the most important job I ever had.
Some of the things I enjoy are informal get-togethers with friends and family, walking in the woods (I love going to the mountains), singing and playing the piano (especially jazz), reading, gardening, attending concerts,museums, travel, and enjoying the many events that take place in the surrounding area.
My Ideal Person:
I am looking for a partner who understands what being a partner is all about. I hope to find someone who will be emotionally available, someone who will feel free to share ideas, thoughts, emotions (good or bad) with me. I believe that in a healthy relationship both partners should feel as though they can share their innermost thoughts and feelings, including fears and frustrations, and that those concerns will be taken seriously by the other. Hoping to find someone who shares my values. I do not mind if someone has different interests than mine. I wish to remain the unique individual that I am and be appreciated for it --this means acceptance. I do not wish for someone to change me or solve my problems, for that is my responsibility. Likewise, I do not wish to change anyone, but hope and strive to be accepting in return. I do believe that this person should try to model their life according to Christ's example, as that is what I strive for myself. I know that this is not always easy and that none of us are perfect. I am not looking for perfection. I am just looking for someone who will try to love me unconditionally and forgive me of my shortcomings - always willing to work towards that goal together. Having a good sense of humor and the the ability to laugh at yourself is also important.
Whew! I made it. But enough about me, me, me....and what I want.....let's hear about you, you, you and what you are looking for.

I think it's important to be with someone who will support your values and help you to live a life that is Christ centered. It is too difficult if there is a tug of war.
