| Why I'm Vegan |
| I went vegan almost 20 years ago for the animals. I now work in the "healthy vegan" space as a coach and am sensitive to all the good health reasons as well, but the ethics are what keep me vegan. |
| More About Me |
| I think everything about how we approach romantic relationships is more or less completely upside down. Let's first investigate who we are to one another, and if we share a mutual admiration for and enjoyment of one another. No timeline, no pressure, no particular goal in mind, just an open interest in whatever emerges. Of course romance is wonderful if that is what is in store for us! But let's stay open and curious and avoid the usual scripts. All that said, a bit about me and what is most important to me. I've been vegan for 20+ years and was vegetarian many years prior to that. Veganism and a stance of moral equality with animals is a core pillar of my moral and ethical worldview and something I need to have in common with my most significant connections. I'm passionate about veganic permaculture and I live on a spectacularly overgrown and almost entirely untamed five acres in rural West Virginia, where I don't have an HOA to complain about my bad behavior. I work as a coach and counselor, and I am a huge believer in (good!) therapy. If you don't have a very good sense of how your childhood wounds are still influencing your patterns and emotional capacity as an adult, and you don't have a real passion for healing and expanding that capacity, we probably won't be able to develop much of a connection. I would say I'm "spiritual but not religious," as annoying as that phrase is. I believe we are spiritual beings having a physical experience, and that our prime directive is to grow toward truth and love. I find a great deal of faith in the divine order to things (and the nature of that divine order) by observing the natural world. I'm over a decade sober, and as part of my recovery I practice (or try to, however awkwardly and uncomfortably and imperfectly) radical honesty. This is on a moment-by-moment basis, self-disclosure of what is coming up and what is happening. I deeply desire to find this in others as well. Sober, vegan, radically honest....I'm a lot of fun at parties! Some things I value very much in other people, and in our time together: * Slow, focused time and attention * Reverence for life and emotional and spiritual growth * Self-responsibility and humility * A passion for relational repair A passion for the truth and courage to meet whatever it reveals |
| I'm Looking For |
| I don't care about how the world sees you. I care about how you see yourself. I care about your connection to your own heart and what moves you and what moves through you. I want to see how you feel, and how you make space for the feelings of those close to you. I want to know about how well you know your shadow, and the adventures you've had together, and what you still yearn to discover about your own disavowed depths. The people I enjoy most are whip-smart, spiritually curious, compassionate, and emotionally intelligent. Great humor is also really important to me. A vegan ethics is very important as well (see more on that above.) I want to build friendships where growth as individuals and toward one another is the primary goal, and there exists a real, sincere commitment to that goal that involves (among other things): a great deal of self-reflection and discussion, ongoing efforts to achieve greater clarity around conflicts and triggers as they arise or have the potential to arise, and heaps of affection, respect, and mutual encouragement along the way. I want us to always have the courage to tell one another the truth, even if it means risking it all. There is no connection without truth. |
