About Me
Hair Color :
Brown
Eye Color :
Brown
I would describe myself as :
Multi-talented, Multi-faceted, Intelligent, Creative, Educated, Well-Rounded, Alt-Spiritual
About me and who I am looking for :
I am an empathic, considerate and intelligent soul-searcher. I seek a deeply meaningful life. I am a great conversationalist who can explore the mundane in the shallows or go deep into existential and spiritual topics. I am also a joker and a trickster with a very irreverent sense of humor and I love to laugh. I use "spicy" language (I often curse not like a sailor but a pirate). I love to shock and awe. I am a man of many interests and talents, with many lifetimes worth of experiences. I crave intellectual discussions. I love to converse and get to know interesting people. I can be outgoing and engaging, and at times I prefer to quietly observe.
I share custody and spend regular time with my kids, and I devote all of my attention to them when we are together. I'd like to keep my life with them safe from becoming emotionally intwined with any friendship/relationship, unless things develop into something very serious down the road.
I am a night owl. I stay pretty busy making the most of my free time by being creative: singing while performing live music, painting, and writing poetry, lyrics, and fiction. I have figured out a way to buy back my 40 hours each week and earn from my talents. I sell my art online and at fairs and markets. I make drums and paint them with animal totems. I am designing and producing a line of jewelry and power amulets. I preform music regularly. I teach private music and art lessons. I have written a novel that I am publishing this year, and I am working on the 2nd installment of the series. Sometimes I experience months of abundance and other months I scrape by, but through all I am happy. My ultimate goal is to build a sustainable home, off the grid and close to nature where my soul mate (if she can be found) and I will live out our days creatively, balanced and in tune with our environment.
I'd like to meet a compassionate, self actualized woman who is secure enough in who she is to allow me to be who I am. Ideally

Interests
What I like to do for fun :
Nothing is more fun to me than performing (singing/guitar live, solo or with my two bands), creative outlets such as painting, writing, recording, designing. When I have my kids, I enjoy movie nights, camping, day trips, outings, and archery.
Activities I like :
Music
Lifestyle
Exercise Habits :
A couple times a week
Eating Habits :
Eats healthy sometimes
About life style :
I have my kids half of the week and every other weekend. When they leave for their mom's, I immerse myself in creative outlets to stave off the instant feeling of loneliness caused by the abrupt silence and stillness. I'd like to find someone to spend those lonely moments with, playing board games, talking and laughing or getting into deep conversations, watching movies, or listening to music. I would sing to you; or better, we could sing together. It would be nice to have someone I can't resist kissing and holding and just being with...a passionate sexual relationship would be much sought as the ultimate icing on the cake. Mostly, I'm looking for friendship and companionship and open to the rest falling in to place.
Background & Values
Languages I speak :
English
Siblings :
3
Political Standpoint :
Between Conservative and Progressive
Born Reverted :
Reverted
Background Values :
I believe in honesty, integrity, the "golden rule" and above all life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I believe in soul searching. After all, if you're not here to find out why you're here, than why are you here?
I was provided with a loving home and parents who gave me a strong foundation for the values I still adhere to today. Although, I have become quite my own, unique person with a strongly developed personal philosophy that is mine alone, and I don't push it on anyone. I was raised Mormon (LDS) and in my teens engaged in a vast search for a truth that better resonated with me. I studied all the major religions and a few nature religions, eventually found more open avenues of thought (LSD...smirk), and found my own spiritual path based on all the nuggets of wisdom I had found in each religion/philosophy after sorting through the tons and tons of confining rubble.
