I love writing, biking, walking, hiking, doing Taichi, preparing a nutritious meal, gardening, sewing, and observing nature. I try to live with mindfulness. I like to live a simple, yet meaningful life. I would like to develop my fullest potential in this lifetime and be able to contribute to the world ...
I wrote the following article on September 10, 2025, at 12:22 PM
>>> Your emotions determine your happiness, and
Your happiness determines your life.
Since my best friend, Dougald, left this world on June 28th this year,
My sadness hasn't diminished even a single day.
But the times of sadness have gradually decreased.
Most of us have feelings.
When we're sad, we don't need to resist it,
But rather understand why we're sad.
This experience of losing a dear friend
Has made me feel immense regret for his short life!
Because he was such a kind person!
Many say that for every effect, there's a cause.
Perhaps his early passing was due to this causal relationship.
I understand very well how the law of attraction works.
When you're happy,
The vibration you emit attracts things related to happiness.
When you're sad, you attract similar things that make you sad.
When you're angry, you attract similar things that make you angry.
... and so on.
So, to have a fulfilling life, the vibration you emit is crucial!
You can be sad, but don't let it persist for too long.
Learn how to transform sadness into strength.
When you're feeling down, realize that
Most people don't know how to control their emotions.
If you could handle it with a relaxed attitude, they wouldn't affect you.
Impermanence is a normal part of life; there's no need to lament it.
The important thing is to accept impermanence and strive to do what you love.
It will make you want to live a more meaningful, fulfilling, and joyful life!

I love life and enjoy the great outdoors as well as travelling and listening to music. I play a couple of instruments. I have grown up children and quite often I think about the adventure of being a child, we are all God's children. We should keep ourselves free from negativity, and strive for positivity.

Hello veg friends!
Long time vegan living with a couple rescue guinea pigs in the DMV area. After around twenty years in the IT sector, I am transitioning to law. So I have a job as a paralegal but it's not too demanding and gives me some free time. As an introvert, I've found myself a bit a of a homebody over the past few years. Though I enjoy getting vegan food at various places in the DMV, primarily VA, like Loving Hut, Sunflower, and Chay Vegetarian.
I'm a lefty and will certainly get along with other people who are or lean left. I don't believe that animals are "things" and should have as much rights as people. I was at the march for Sanity, I've seen Colbert live, and willing to go to the occasional protest.
Some video games I'm playing include Final Fantasy 14, Warframe, and Elden Ring. I'm not great, but good enough to do some end game content. Maybe you could introduce me to a game or play with me sometime? It's a nice way to relax a bit.

I have rescued dogs and cats. I love the countryside and enjoy walking the dogs (and the cats often join us!). I love to cook and eat delicious food. I enjoy travelling and experiencing different cultures. I enjoy eating out and visiting the cinema, the theatre and live music events. I'd love to live somewhere I could have my own organic vegetable garden again. I love my garden and beautiful flowers but get real satisfaction from growing my own food, as I did when I lived in France for a few years.

I am a committed, compassionate, and caring man. I am a patient listener and a deep and authentic sharer.
The most important three things to me are God, love, and family, in both this world and the world to come. I profoundly believe that with the right person marriage can be a fortress of well-being.
I have been vegetarian for 35 years, vegan for 30 years. I am a man of deep convictions, self-disciplined, trustworthy, and reliable.
I have an undergraduate degree in mathematics and a graduate degree in computer science. Also, I went to medical school, but withdrew during my clinical rotations because of traumatic circumstances.
I live alone in the Blue Ridge Mountains of southern Virginia with my three small dogs, Faith and her two sons Gentle and Courage (see picture). I teach in human transformation and healing.
I love to sing, dance, and run in the mountains. I am romantic and affectionate. I love with my whole heart ❤️

After giving this some thought I came to a realization; Nothing I put here can tell you anything about me. Sure some very basic things but it would be like answering a complicated question with a simple answer. It's not that I am complicated either. There's more to me and you than "i'm a smart happy...etc"
If you want to know about me get to know me. Unfortunately you can't know about a person by just reading about them, especially if they are the Authors. As far as I'm concerned this section should be eliminated unless there's some proof of it's authenticity.
However some facts would help perhaps.
I don't drink alcohol( last time i did was 16 years ago), I don't smoke(last time i did was 13 years ago, I don't cuss( 4 years so far) And I am not a religion fanatic. Everything I am is because of my own will.
I don't have friends, though anyone can consider me their friend. I don't rely on anyone but my self. I enjoy my own company. Some people think that sounds lonely. But I think that maybe it's because they have a bit of loneliness in them.
I always have an open mind. I believe that's crucial in growing as a person. But I don't think of it as a ticket to do everything that you're curious about or everything others bring upon you.
But then again what do I know.

Happy, whole, open-minded, heart-based, hippie-ish, affectionate, self-confident, slightly kinky guy with lots of love to share. Very easy-going, non-judgmental American transplant to Ireland (dual citizenship), so I will always be an outsider/blow-in.
A kind-hearted and very liberal free-spirit, I find great beauty in life and also laugh a lot! A rich and fulfilling sex life is important to me as a way of communication and connection. I like to touch and be touched by those I love.
Currently living a rather low-key, rural life in a beautiful location, alone in a big house with one feline who chooses to be with me.
Reach out and say hello!

i have been living in South America for the past 7 years. I moved to URUGUAY because, among other reasons, I needed to stimulate my brain by doing things way out of the ordinary. I travel a LOT, and I like to try to figure out how to make vegan versions of ethnic cuisine ( although a lot of food when I travel thru Asia, already IS vegan )

I have been a vegetarian for several years. I love outdoor activities especially during the summer such as hiking and swimming. Traveling is also one of my interests. I have traveled to South America, Mexico, Germany, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Lichtenstein and Turks and Caicos. I also enjoy seeing movies, reading books, going to concerts and going to museums.
With a bachelor's degree in biological sciences, I worked at first as a lab technician in an environmental lab. Eventually, I received my nursing degree and now work at a local teaching hospital.
I am very family oriented. I try to respect and get along with my parents.

Intelligent, creative, down-to-earth, witty, open-minded (yet having definite opinions), athletic, in shape, honest, faithful, non-materialistic, sensitive, affectionate and sensual are some traits that could describe me. I'm pragmatic, yet also idealistic about certain things.
I'm a self-employed professional photographer. Since photography is my hobby as well as my profession
it is a major factor in my life. Let me know if you'd like to see my photography on my website. I'm very interested in computer imaging also.
Snowboarding, skiing, mountain biking, kayaking, skateboarding, and body boarding are among the sports I'm into. I’m always open to trying new ones. I'd much rather go participate in a sport than
watch someone else doing one. I love all kinds of visual arts and like to go to museums and galleries. I like to travel to new places, especially national parks. Gardening, especially with native plants is something that I enjoy. I also have a large number of houseplants.
My daughter was born on 12/12/03.

I’m vegan to the core, nearly 30 years. I cook with passion and get into my flow creating healthy, delicious, colorful and cruelty-free meals for others. I don’t drink. Weightlifting is empowering and rewarding. Hiking and yoga round it out. I am setting goals and working on myself. I’m an avid reader. Volunteering is important. I live in a rural area for its natural beauty. I’m looking for a long-term partner, long distance for now with travel to mine, yours, or other.

I have many passions. I work in the health field. I love working with people who are wanting to make a positive change in their health. I am interested in doing more public speaking, and possibly creating a movie. I love the outdoors, am physically active, and play classical guitar. I would love to do more travelling. Spiritual growth is important to me. I am interested in questions about the meaning of life not just for me, but also for all of life.

I don't get no respect at all. I says to this cook, "Can you do vegan for me?" She says, "What kind of girl do you think I am?" I go to the vet's to buy some vegan puppy chow. She says, "Is it to go or will you eat it here?"
Strive to live a simple, nonmaterialistic, meaningful, and purposeful life. I'm a Luddite at heart, reminiscing about the halcyon days when we weren't overdependent on technology. I embrace sechel, not artificial intelligence, and modesty, not social media. 不患莫己知,求为可知也。"Don't fret about not being well-known; instead, strive to be worthy of being known" (Analects, book 4, verse 14). Jewish ideals inform and guide in all aspects of life. These include honesty and evenhandedness, including not saying anything essentially true but meant to mislead; not hurting people's feelings or saying negative things about them; giving others the benefit of the doubt and the opportunity to do the right thing; having a higher purpose in life, including work; and learning for the sake of learning, including from everyone! But people with similar values come from many paths in life, the ultimate expression of which is being a mensch or, as Confucius termed it, a junzi, someone who sets an example through his or her actions, which speak louder than words.
Enjoy hiking, being in nature, lizard-watching, learning, artistic creativity, and dry and waggish humor (but not sarcasm). Introverted and sometimes lost in thought, but hopefully thoughtful in more ways than one! Look for ways to help others while avoiding self-serving feelings like validation and pride. Adventurous but also risk-averse.
I live in the desert, which teaches humility, not only because we are dwarfed by the majestic mountains and the expansive valleys but also because we are humbled by the miraculous, mind-blowing adaptations that allow life in all its forms to not merely survive but thrive in the most challenging of environments. Nature can be our teacher and help us improve our character traits.
I stopped practicing clinical medicine 30 years ago when it was no longer possible to do so ethically. My magnum opus has been the definitive treatise on Jewish medicine, a moral, integrated philosophy and system of practice, free of self-interest, the cure for the present degenerate system.
And now, for the final course, mon petit chou, my sweet, here is your fortune cookie: 好话不在多,几句成知己。"Good-hearted words need not be many; just a few can make a close friend."

I’m Bravo, a spirited individual with a passion for fresh veggies and a deep love for horses. When I’m not tending to my vibrant vegetable garden, you can find me at the stables, bonding with his trusty steed, Max. I believe that the joy of nurturing plants rivals only the thrill of a galloping ride, making life a delightful blend of flavors and freedom.
